When teaching colors in Kindergarten, my teammates and I like to start with just a few colors and then we add more as we go.
If the timing works out, some years I start with just the fall colors (rojo, amarillo, anaranjado, verde, y marrón). We’ve enjoyed using this booklet and activities from Mundo de Pepita. It’s fun being able to connect words in their new language to the world around them. We’re in the Midwest so we get lots of beautiful colors during fall.
Other years it ends up that we’re not starting colors until after the excitement of fall has passed. In that case, we usually start with these 5 colors: rojo, verde, azul, amarillo, y rosado. A colleague (thanks, Sra. Burkel!) came up with a cute song that we use and she was nice enough to let me turn it into a video–check it out here.
