Tints and Shades - Mixing colours

After assessing our knowledge on primary, secondary and tertiary colours, the children's interest was in mixing the primary colours together, then adding white and black to make tints and shades.

Simon "Wow, we can make millions of colours" 

Sofia "Mixing is so much fun. Look, bright purple." 

Trystan" We can keep mixing and never stop, the colour is always changing." 

We painted a circle with all the colours that we mixed and Emilie said that we could use them to "decorate the walls"; a colour-mixing mural.
