  1. Rainbows and Color Fall 2012

  2. Introducing Rainbows • Ask students: • How many of you have seen a rainbow? • What about rainbows in places other than the sky? • Show students the “rainbow” on their handout. • Stress the order of the colors in the rainbow and how they always appear that way • White light is composed of these six colors, and these give color to everything

  3. Rainbow glasses and cds • Pass out CDs and rainbow glasses to each student

  4. Color wheel demonstration • Demonstrate how the combination of the different colors makes white light

  5. Making a color wheel • Tell students that they are going to make their own color wheel by mixing the primary colors in exact proportions • Have students place the red drops first, followed by the blue, and lastly by the yellow. Stir the colors together with a toothpick (or finger). • Ask students to name what colors they have made • They can keep their colors by laying a paper towel on the sheet and blotting the liquid • They can repeat the experiment and “draw” all the colors into the center of the wheel and see that the end result is a dark brown/black color.

  6. Mixing colors in a palette (optional) • Students can now make their own color combinations in the palettes • Tell students that they can use the color wheel information as a guide to different shades of colors • Ask students how they can make black
