Vocabulary Colours Aim to teach at least 5 of the colours at Early Level initially and build up as pupils progress towards First Level. Welche Farbe ist das? What colour is it? Das ist This is blau blue weiß white rot red grün green gelb yellow rosa pink schwarz black grau grey lila purple braun brown Magst du blau? Do you like blue? Ich liebe… I love Ich mag… I like Ich mag………..nicht. I don’t like Ich hasse… I hate Mag means like. Be mindful of the conjugation: Ich mag, Du magst, Er/Sie/Es mag. And for liebe (love): Ich liebe, Du liebst, Er/Sie/Es liebt

Introducing vocabulary
You can try this as an alternative to introducing vocabulary. Make colour cards for and give each group/pair a set. Ask them to listen to the colour and look at the word and then hold up the colour they think it is.
5
Aufgabe 1 Colour cards
6
Teacher notes Pupils work in pairs, groups or individually
They have a selection of coloured cards in front of them on the table (e.g. cut up coloured paper) They read and listen to the colour on each flashcard and hold up which colour they think it is. Teacher then reveals the colour picture on the slide

Aufgabe 2 Listening colours
21
Teacher notes Pupils hold up a colour card (or points to a colour on the following slide) and the others in the class have to say the colour word Can they check by clicking the audio recording on the slide Could play this in teams and win points for each colour said correctly!
22
This slide can be used to revise colours before moving on.
23
Aufgabe 3 Bringt mir…! Bringt mir means bring me!
24
Teacher notes Pupils work in groups Number each person in groups 1 – 4
Teacher chooses a number e.g. die Nummer eins Then ask them to bring an object to the front by using the phrase: Bringt mir ein blaues Objekt. (blue) Pupils then race to find something blue and bring it out to the teacher. Be mindful of the conjugation. Blau but blaues Objekt. In this Phrase you have to ad -es to the colour.
25
Bringt mir ein…………Objekt.
The teacher asks one colour of person in each group to bring here un object and then adds a colour. Each team gets a point for whatever the deliver of that object.
26
Aufagbe 4 Welche Farbe ist das?
Welche Farbe ist das means what colour is it?
27
Teacher notes This activity can be used to practice using Das ist (it is) with colours. Ask the question, Welche Farbe ist das? and then show the pupils the slides. They then have to say Das ist blau or whatever it might be. You can follow this up by asking pupils to then select objects around the room and then ask the class what colour it is.
28
Welche Farbe ist das? Look at the colours and ask the class, “Welche Farbe ist das” for each of them. The pupils should then respond with Das ist____ and the correct colour.
29
Aufgabe 5 Welche Farbe fehlt? Was fehlt means what’s missing?
30
Teacher notes Look at the colour slides, which one is missing? One colour will disappear and pupils should say which one is missing. You can add in Augen zu, Augen auf (close your eyes, open your eyes) For the 2nd part of the activity, pupils can then play the same game in groups by making their own colour cards, laying them out in the middle of the group and then taking it in turns to say Augen zu, removing a card, saying Augen auf and then asking the question, “Was fehlt?”

Aufgabe 8 Colour BINGO
129
For this activity, use the provided Bingo-sheet (you can create some others with a different sequence) and let the pupils colour the fields as soon as the know the colour. Use a coloured dice, a colour chart or just point out different colours in the classroom.
130
Colour Bingo! Wait for the colours to be called.
Die FARBEN Colour Bingo! Wait for the colours to be called. If you can find the colour on your paper, colour in the square. Grün Rot Orange Blau Schwarz Rosa EXAMPLE! You can create your on versions and different sequences.
131
Embedding the language tip
Use German colours for cooperative groups – rot, blau etc. The German for rainbow is “Regenbogen” – see next slide! Ask pupils “Welche Farbe ist das?” when reading stories, creating art work etc.
132
Regenbogen Teacher gives a coloured card to all pupils with either one of yellow, blue, red or green. Pupils then have to organise themselves into groups by asking the question, “Welche Farbe ist das?” and saying their own colour (the question is optional depending on class!). There should be an equal (as much as is possible) number of each colour card in the class so that the pupils are in groups with one of each colour.
133
ICT Resources online You will find a bank of sample ICT activities which you can use to practise the vocabulary in the classroom. This is not a prescriptive list of activities and you can use or adapt them to suit the needs of your class. Each of the slides contains an image of the website page. If you click on the image it will take you to the page. Alternatively you can use a link address which you will find in the slide notes.
134
Grün, grün, grün sind alle meine Kleider
Grün, grün, grün is a traditional German children’s song. “Green green green are all my dresses, green green green is everything I have This is the reason I love everything that is green: because my beloved is a hunter.” red – horseman, blue – sailor, black – chimney sweep, white – miller (of flour), bunt (multi-coloured) - painter
