"Colors in Music and Sound: Listening to the Invisible"

Listening Activity on Colors

General Objective:

To help children improve their listening skills while learning to identify and recognize colors in English.

Listening and Identifying Colors

Step 1: Play an audio recording where you say a color (or use a teacher's voice if you're doing this live).

Step 2: The children should listen to the color name in the recording and then hold up the correct flashcard or image of the object of that color.

Color Listening Challenge

Step 1: Give a series of color-related instructions for the children to follow.

Step 2: The children will listen to the instructions and follow them by pointing to objects in the room, drawing, or coloring as instructed.

Color Listening Quiz

Step 1: After reviewing the colors, play a short quiz where you say the name of the color and the children have to respond by raising their hand or showing a flashcard.

Example quiz:

  • Teacher (audio): “What color is the apple?”

  • Children respond: “Red!”

  • Teacher (audio): “What color is the sky?”

  • Children respond: “Blue!”

Step 2: Alternatively, you can make it a "True or False" activity where you say something and the children have to decide if it's correct or not.

Example:

  • Teacher (audio): “The grass is red.” (Children say "no")
  • Teacher (audio): “The sun is yellow.” (Children say "yes")

Objective: To improve listening comprehension and reinforce color vocabulary.
