Students were introduced to the idea of Complementary Colors. We started our lesson by watching and listening to this video of a song "Ballad of Red and Green." from Sesame Street.
They loved the song and giggled a lot. It is pretty silly, but it is a great video to show complementary colors. It's pretty catchy too.
After listening to the song, students listed the complementary colors. They were introduced to the concept that colors can work together to create contrast that allows a color to look lighter or darker when used with a complementary.
Students followed an easy directed drawing to create 4 monsters. After drawing, they had fun with watercolor to add complementary colors. This was a fun color lesson right before Halloween.
