The Colors of the Rainbow - September 11, 2006

Most teachers shy away from creating webquests for primary students, so when I find a good one for 1st/2nd graders, I like to pass it along: TITLE: Learning The Colors of the Rainbow AUTHOR: LaVon Lindstrom LINK: Link to *The Colors of the Rainbow* Webquest This webquest basically transfers a "books and paper" task (identifying the colors of the rainbow" to an online modality: Welcome to The Colors of the Rainbow. Have you ever wondered what colors make up a rainbow? Which color come first? Well, today you will learn all the colors of the rainbow. You will also get to color your very own rainbow all by yourself. There are no links to external websites - but for younger students, the whole idea is to get them used to the web as a learning environment. If you wanted your students to extend their learning on colors, you can find great websites in the K12 Station Visual Media Library for Young Students (scroll down to the middle of the page for sites on color).
