Color Collages Have children search through magazines for red pictures, and glue them onto red construction paper. Do the same with each color and use these as posters for the classroom. Another Idea: Cut fabric of different patterns and colors into 1-inch squares, and give children different colors of construction paper cut in half. Make sure to have several patterns of each color fabric (ginghams, stripes, florals, plaids, polka dots).
