Primary colours are colours that can’t be made by other colours those colours are red, blue and yellow. Primary colours are used you make other colours and those are secondary colours. The warm colours in Primary colors are yellow and red. The cool colours in primary colours are blue. So last week Class 5 did a colour wheel the first colours we painted were primary colours, then we mixed the primary colours to make secondary colours, we painted those on and then we mixed secondary colours and primary colours to make tertiary colours, then we paint that on to the colour wheel and left it to dry. After the paint dried we drew shapes to show what the primary colours are what the secondary colours are and tertiary colours. The shape we used for primary colours were triangles the shape we used for secondary colours were squares and the shape we used for tertiary colours were circles.

What are secondary colours?
Secondary colours are made by primary colours getting mixed together to make orange, green and violet. green is made up by blue and yellow, orange is made up by red and yellow and violet is made with the two colours blue and red. secondary and primary colours can be made into tertiary colours. The warm colours in the secondary colours are orange and the cool colours in secondary colours are violet and green.

What are tertiary colours?
Tertiary colours are made with the primary and secondary colours the names of these colours are  yellow-green, blue-green, blue-violet, red-violet, red-orange and yellow-orange these are the tertiary colours. The warm colours in the Tertiary colours are red-orange and  red-violet  and the cool colours are blue-violet, blue-green and yellow-green.

What are warm and cool colours?
The warm colours are red-orange, red-violet, yellow, orange and red. The cool colours are blue-green, blue-violet, yellow-green, blue, green and violet. Another task we did was a warm and cool colours task we had to do was a buildings one where we had to draw some buildings and then we drew the, background as a sunset we had to pick if we wanted cool or warm colours for the, sunset and the buildings what I did was cool colours for my sunset and warm colours for my building. The first thing we did was paint the sky cool or even warm colours. Then we did the buildings the colours we chose after we had finished we had to wait until it dries and then we had to get black paint and go over the lines we drew in the beginning.
