I would make sure i have the materials enough for everyone by using non toxic paint, have a paint try for each kid preferable a non spill one. I will have the white papers with the pie wheel drawn. I will make sure they have enough workspace to avoid disputes or painting other’s work. I will also demonstrate brush technique and care. Starting with the light colour ending with the dark color. I will have a wet wipe which they will use to clean their brush after each paint. I will first explain the process by describing the material and how it will be used for the art using the example i made prior to conducting the activity.

They will learn about shapes. The wheel is a circle with 6 triangles. They will learn colours and brush control by making sure the brush does overlap to the next section and by not using too much paint. By mixing paint they learn how to form a new colour. They feel a sense of accomplishment and it boosts their confidence. It also promotes social skills they learn to share and exchange ideas. One of my kids was intrigued about how many shades of blue they can make because blue is their favourite colour.

COLOUR WHEEL

 - I will plan for the activity and what is the best time to do it.
 - Gather all the materials needed and create first my own colour wheel with the primary colours. In another paper , I will make primary and secondary colours so that kids can see the difference.
 - I will set up tables(cover it with plastic ) and ask a co-worker to help me guide the kids step by step if they needed help.
 -I will introduce the activity  and show them my colour wheel that I made.I will ask them if they know how to make it.What are the three primary colours needed. Also, ask them if they are ready to do magic and create three more colours by combining the primary colours. Kids like magic.I think this is a very interesting activity for them.
 - I start the activity .Talk positively , give praises and encouragement.
 - Praise them for the job well done and ask what they like the most.

Color Wheel Activity

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.k4ZSgK7E
How I would set up this activity for 3 years old is put a big paper on the table but first make the color wheel wet and then get the water color paint ready. Get the kids ready and show them what we did and this is what they are do. I would teach them each color they are gonna do and then help them paint their wheel.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.rtYmlPiw
They would be participating in the are by learning their color from light to dark and by using their hands and using how to use a paint brush. Teaching them how to mix colors together to get another color. They would have fun doing this color wheel.

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.k4ZSgK7E
I would gather all supplies I needed, prepare the paint and water colour papers, have the primary paint colours ready in containers, give each child their own paper, explain and demonstrate to the children what we will be doing, 1 colour at a time I would ask the children to follow my steps, then show them how to mix 2 colours to make a different colour, and continue until our colour wheel is complete. 

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.rtYmlPiw
This activity would help with gone motor skills, holding a paint brush, learning how to use the paint brush with the water colours, they will learn what primary colours they need to make different colours, This activity will also help with social domain, interacting with other children and asking many questions what is new to them.

Colour Wheel

First , I will gather all the materials needed ahead of time.
To start, I will draw a circle  on watercolour paper and divide it into six sections using a ruler and pencil. Then I will prepare the primary colours ( red, yellow, and blue) and place them on the palette. I will also prepare container with clean water , paint brush and paper towel.
When all the materials are ready. I will help them put on their aprons to avoid getting paint stains on their clothing. Then I will have them sit at the table and hand each child a piece of watercolour paper that I prepared along with  the palette where I put the primary colours.
Then I will demonstrate the activity first by showing which colour we are going to use. We will start with yellow, after colouring the yellow section, I will tell them that we need to clean our brushes after each colours so the colours don’t mix together.After completing all the primary colours I will explain them that we can create new colours by mixing primary colours , such as red and yellow, to create orange. Then followed by mixing yellow and blue to create green and lastly mixing red and blue to make purple.

This activity helps 3 years old learn colours and notice how colours change when mixed. It helps strengthen their hand and finger muscles while holding the brush. It also allows them to express their feelings and be creative. Painting can help them feel happy and proud of their work.It also helps develops their language skills by identifying and naming colours.It also teaches them to focus, try new things, and enjoy learning through play.

COLOUR WHEEL

# data[].attributes.custom_properties.k4ZSgK7E
The best plan for me to successfully do this activity with 3 years olds is to set up a large blank colour wheel enough to cover the whole table in my class so all children can work together as a team to complete the activity.

I will prepare all the primary colours in a cups wide enough for the children to dip their paint brushes. I would also provide a cup of water for washing brushes in between colours.  Before starting, children will gather around the table while I introduce them the colour wheel that I made and give a little introduction on what we will do. With the help other educator in the class, children will now asked to dip their paint brushes on the cup of paint and will be guided to paint on the designated wedge. Once a wedge is completed, they will rinse their brushes in the cup of water before moving on. The process will continue until the colour wheel is completed.

This activity would benefit three years old through the following:
- develop their fine motor skills by holding  and controlling paint brushes. 
- support their cognitive by learning the primary colours and exploring in colour mixing.
- encourage social and emotional by working together and feel proud after finishing the activity.
- supports language development when children listens to instructions, naming the colours and from the conversations they make with their peers and educators about the art or while they do the art.

Dealing with colours is amazing and exciting for all children in their learning process, apart from learning how to colour , children learn how to combine colours to form different colours . Here we shall look at primary and secondary colours and how they can be combined to other colours. Here i have made two colour circles both for primary and secondary colours.
