Colours, shapes and patterns

Students use their observation skills in a structured way to explore our environment. In this activity your class will explore some of the amazing colours, shapes, patterns and textures that can be found in nature. The class will take a walk around the school or a nearby park, spotting as many colours as they can, observing the different shapes and patterns found along the walk, and feeling the different textures of a variety of objects along the walk. This activity is adapted from Sharing Nature with Children.*
