How Many Colours in the Rainbow?

How many colours in a rainbow? What happens when you mix red and blue? Explore these questions and more in this project about colours in the natural and man-made world. 

We will be learning different things including: 

• How many different colours are in the rainbow and their names
• Colour mixing 
• How rainbows are made 
• Colours in nature

and lots more! 
 

Before starting the topic, we spoke to the children about what information and facts they already know and have previously learned about rainbows. They came up with lots of great information and are looking forward to learning more about colours and rainbows.
