This is just a brief set of resourcs and ideas prepared for primary school children. I have taught colours for one lesson and wanted to introduce the printed word and the placement of the adjective after the noun without getting into adjectival agreements. So I am using the Comic Relief Red Nose day in the UK to exploit this. Hopefully they will all produce a coloured nose of their own for the day.
These are Word and Smartboard notebook resources but the you can adapt them for your own needs. If you feel able to, replacing my pic with one of your own might avoid uneccessary trauma in young minds!
Download Nez-rouge Notebook file. Click in the centre of the photo on the first page and you zoom in on my nose - not for the fainthearted... You need Notebook 10 to view the animations for this file.
Download Test sheet Word file - they fold it in two to test each other
Download Nez pdf file - I used this to print off flashcards and play flashcard games.
To make their own noses, I am cutting a small square of card. In the middle there is a hole big enough to feed a coloured ballon through. Blow up the balloon so that it protrudes on one side of the card and can be tied off on the other. Place elastic bands on either side of the card to loop over ears et voilà!
Feel free to share ideas!
Update
I tried this today and it was a big success, if a little tricky to make the noses. Here is a template you can print off to make the cards which you use to mount the balloons.
Thanks too to Jan Lewandowski as she pointed me towards these three links for materials on a french nursery rhyme "J'ai un gros nez rouge".
