Our
Sense of Sight
I introduced the Five Senses this
week. I like to start with the story
Mouse Paint. We discussed how we can
observe colors with our sense of sight.
We did our first experiment, Color
Jars. I used tempra paint and
water. Then I read the story, Mouse
Paint.
I gave each student a drop of red
paint, yellow paint, and blue paint and several q-tips. First, We
made mouse tracks with the primary colors and then we mixed the paints to make
secondary colors.
After our tracks dried we made some
mice. I found some “how to draw mice” on google and my little ones had a lot of
fun.
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, I am just gathering ideas for the five senses and love the mice.

Hi what is the color jars experiment?
ReplyDeleteHi Denisha,
DeleteThanks for reading TVBK. The color jar experiment is mixing the primary colors to make more colors. For example if you mix red and yellow it will make orange. If you mix the blue and yellow paint it will make green. I like to use food coloring because paint looks a bit muddy.
