Ice Cream Scoops

Worksheet Description

This worksheet displays a series of color mixing exercises where students are expected to combine a primary color with a secondary color to discover the resulting tertiary color. Each row shows a pair of ice cream cone shapes with a primary and a secondary color labeled, followed by an empty cone shape where the resulting color should be filled in. There are four rows, each dedicated to a unique color combination, with the labels indicating the specific colors to be mixed. The activity is structured to guide students through an exploration of color blending, using a fun and relatable ice cream cone graphic.

The purpose of this worksheet is to educate students about tertiary colors, which are formed by mixing a primary color with a secondary color. It encourages students to apply their knowledge of color theory practically by mixing colors and filling in the blank ice cream cones with the correct tertiary color. This exercise not only teaches color blending but also reinforces the concepts of primary and secondary colors as part of a broader color spectrum. Overall, the worksheet serves as a practical tool for enhancing students’ understanding of complex color relationships in a visually engaging manner.
