✏️ How to Use the Preschool Color Cards

First, print the pages on white cardstock. Select “Actual Size” or “100%” in your printer settings to preserve the intended measurements. Next, cut around the outside edges and laminate the pieces for added durability.

Attach the header to your classroom wall, circle time area or focus wall. Then, place the featured color card directly beneath it. Change the card weekly, daily or whenever you introduce a new color.

You can also use the Color of the Week cards to:

• Introduce and review color words during circle time
• Search the classroom for objects in the featured color
• Sort toys, counters or picture cards by color
• Encourage children to wear or bring something in the featured color
• Support discussions during art and craft experiences
• Review previously learned colors throughout the year

Please note that selecting “Fit to Page” may slightly reduce the finished size of the printables.
