REFLECTION
FEEDBACK
Yr 7 Colourwheel
Good feeling out of prior knowledge. Kids were confident with you as their teacher.
You can do more talking with the kids, discuss the properties of primary and secondary colours they
knew what the name of them were but did they have any more knowledge on colour. Draw the colour
wheel big on the board to help you.
Demonstrate and discuss how to use the paint brush correctly.
Mix some colour to show the the quantities needed.
All students engaged with this lesson and produced good standard colourwheels.
