Bring colours to life in your classroom with 11 printable flashcards designed for primary-school English.
Each card combines:
- the colour word in big letters, in the colour it names;
- a striking photo that makes children want to look: planet Earth for blue, the Moon for white, the Egyptian pyramids for yellow, a kiwi for brown…
- one simple sentence to say out loud, such as "The Moon is white."
The 11 colours: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink, brown, black, white, grey.
Ideas for use
- Wall display: a "colours corner" in your classroom, refreshed every week.
- English routine: show a card, ask pupils to name the colour, repeat the sentence together.
- Games: memory, "who has the card?", sorting objects by colour.
- Support: the photos help pupils who are not yet fluent readers.
Print, cut, and you're ready to go!
