Write and Shade

Worksheet Description

This worksheet displays the words “Red,” “Blue,” and “Yellow” at the top, each written with dashed lines to guide students in tracing over them. Below each color word, there are lined spaces for students to practice writing the words independently. Accompanying these color words and writing lines are three images: an apple, a sun, and a whale. The task directs students to write the color words and then color each image with the appropriate primary color.

The worksheet is designed to teach students both color recognition and word formation for the three primary colors. By tracing and writing the color words, students develop their handwriting skills and learn to correctly spell the color names. Coloring the images allows for the association of each color with commonly recognized objects that are typically depicted in those colors. This multi-faceted approach reinforces the connection between the visual color, the written word, and the object typically represented by that color, enhancing memory and learning through active participation.
