If you like brown jump up and down.
• Write colour words on the board. Ask pupils to point to examples in the classroom. • Tell pupils to decide what their favourite colour is and to find other pupils with the same favourite colour by mingling and asking in Standard English: ‘ What’s your favourite colour?’ ‘Mine is_______ .’ • Develop an awareness of rhyme through songs, rhymes and word play. Help pupils to identify the rhyming parts of words. Have pupils think of more words that rhyme with red and brown . • What do pupils notice about the words ‘up’ and ‘down’? Can they suggest other pairs of opposites?
