Imagine that you are a Grade R teacher and you are helping a 5 year old child to choose a secondary colour from the box of a crayons. Draw one e.g of an object can show the child to match with green?

You can show the child a picture of a tree to match with the color green. This will help them understand that green is the color of leaves and grass.

Teacher: "Let's look for a secondary color. Do you see any colors that are made by mixing two primary colors?"

Child: "Yes, here's one!"

Teacher: "Can you tell me what color you chose and what primary colors it's made from?"

Child: "It's green. It's made from yellow and blue."

Teacher: "That's right! Green is a secondary color. Can you name an object that is green?"

Child: "A tree!"

Teacher: "Yes, trees are green. Let's color a picture of a tree with the green crayon."
