Art class with kids: color theory

I've been a bad blogger.
I need to get with it.
I've been so busy. so busy.

Remember when I said I got a job teaching Art and Crafts at the Montessori school?
yes. I love it.

Today I [attempted] taught them about the color wheel.
most of them got it and created beautiful color wheels!  I was so proud!
and we ventured into the area of monochromatic, complementary, and analogous color schemes... somewhat successfully.

I'm excited to build off of this and get them to know immediately what color is created when you mix blue and yellow. (most of them guessed... purple.)
they're only like 8 years old.
