1. The learner see the basket or box. 2. The box is on the table in front of you. Take out the rectangles there. Place half of them in a horizontal row, the rest in a vertical row. 3. Tell the learner that you want to match the colors. Start with the lowest color in the vertical row, then look for the same color in the horizontal row and move the color pairs side by side. 4. Ask the learner to complete the work.

Everyone loves colors. Color tasks could be started by matching primary colors. Additional colors can then be added and finally color tones can be introduced. You can get paint strips from a hardware store, but you can also make them yourself. Try to choose as bright primary colors as possible.
