Concepts

colors, memorization

Additional Tags

memory game, colors, matching cards, visual and performing arts

Instructional Ideas

  • Laminate for future use, or to use in multiple groups
  • Print on cardstock to hide the words on the other side of the card
  • For early readers, have one card with the color word, and one card with the actual color for them to match

Classroom Considerations

  • Best if printed in color, but you could indicate color with marker or colored pencil as well
