Pirate Ship Colours
by Natalia Aira
(Spain)
Here´s a very good game to teach colours to very small kids.
You use hula-hoops of different colours and pretend they are a pirate ships.
The teacher or one of the kids is a shark. So the shark (or the teacher) has to say a colour and the kids have to go in the hoop of that colour before the shark eats them.
If a pirate gets bitten by a shark they become a shark and have to get the other pirates. This game can also be used for primary.
