Lesson 3: Using Colour
Objectives:
To identify and analyse the writer’s vocabulary and use of colour in a poem.

Task:

Pick a colour, and make a mind-map of what that colour makes you think about.

Now, in the space on the next page, draw an image that represents the colour that you’ve
been given. What will you include? Consider the following things when you start drawing
your image:
– Any objects that your colour makes you think about
– Any feelings that your colour makes you think about
