About this worksheet

A color-recognition page built around one idea: blue is not just a word, it is a property of real things. The page shows four outlined pictures — a whale, blue jay, butterfly and a peacock — and the only job is to color them blue.

Blue things in nature are mostly big or alive — the sea, the sky, a whale, a peacock — so this page leans on animals. The blue jay even wears the color in its name, which is worth pointing out: some words tell you their color for free.

One color per page is deliberate. A page of mixed colors tests sorting; this page builds the single association first, and its sibling pages cover the other colors one by one before the review sheet mixes them.

How to use this sheet

Put out several crayons, not just the right one — choosing the correct crayon unprompted is the actual test of the skill.
