Teacher tip
Before searching, have kids read the helper box and color a dot next to each word on the list in that color.
How to use it
- Draw shapes on the board and let kids call out the Spanish names.
- Hold up a crayon and say the color; have kids find something that color in the room.
- Say every Spanish word out loud and have kids echo it before they read or write it.
Watch for
Using naranja and anaranjado as different colors. Both mean orange.
Talk about it
- Which color word is the longest?
- Where could you use this word outside of school?
