I have been exploring colour charts and wheels for my linked lessons as I will be teaching primary/secondary colours, and cool/warm colours. My CT gave me a neat idea for warm and cool colours; choose one or the other and think of a place or environment. If you choose an environment that is normally considered warm then use cool colours and draw a scene. So for example draw a desert scape using blues, greens, and purples. Draw a winter scape using reds, yellows, and oranges. Sounds like a new idea! For secondary colours (After i introduce primary colours) I might use paint to create them so that its a hands-on activity. Any thoughts or advice or other neat ideas?
Many of your classmates worked on the colour wheel for the practicum lessons and it was surprising to see how many different ways to teach this, at different grade levels, as well as the different projects that could be produced. I think the scenes you describe would have an eerie feeling.
