September – Colour Wheel Lantern

The main objective of today’s lesson is to introduce the basic knowledge of colours - ‘The Colour Wheel’. Glass papers of primary colours (blue, red and yellow) were used, as one of the most effective ways to show and learn how the colour wheel works.

Apart from its functional purpose, the Lantern concept was chosen to represent the Mid- Autumn Festival; a harvest festival celebrated by not only the ethnic Chinese, but also Chinese in Malaysia and around the world in family get-together. Our students got to know and be exposed to the uniqueness of living in multicultural Malaysia with its interesting cultures and practices.

Learning outcome: Primary Colours, lantern making and materials used, Cultural Awareness
