Color Mixing & Graphing

What a fun day!!  We talked about mixing primary colors today!  First, we started with a simple sheet about mixing colors (found it HERE a few years ago) - just using crayons but not actually mixing. 

Then, I divided a piece of white construction paper into 9 squares.  Using red, yellow & blue (and adding a little black, white & brown), I just put a few drops of each onto the squares, and we came up with new colors!!  Hunter loved this!! :)













Next, we talked about graphing!!  What a better way to learn about graphing, than by using CANDY!!!  M&M's to be exact!!  ;)  I've had this M&M graphing sheet forever (sorry, don't know where it came from - but could easily be created on your own!!), and thought Hunter would enjoy it!!  Of course, he did!!!













Bummed that I forgot to take a picture with all the M&M's on the paper, but you can get the idea by his little "circles"!!  ;)
