• Before the lesson, take a look around the house or yard to spot different colors and shapes.

Activities

• Color Hunt: Go on a scavenger hunt around the house or yard to find items of different colors. Ask the student to point out an item and say its color aloud.

• Shape Search: Look for objects that are different shapes (like circles, squares, and triangles). Ask the student to find one of each shape and describe it.

• Color and Shape Drawing: Have the student draw their favorite color and shape. Encourage them to talk about why they like that color or shape.

• Color and Shape Songs: Sing a fun song about colors and shapes together. Use simple melodies to make it engaging!
