Colors consists of a pack of 40 flashcards representing 10 colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, brown, fuchsia, gray and black. Each color is made up of a “master” card, printed both front and back in a solid color, and three other cards: one in the same shade as the “master” card, one in a medium shade and one in a lighter tone than the “master” color. On the back of these color scale cards there is a photo of a subject colored in the same tone as the front.
These simple and clear materials, inspired by Maria Montessori’s methods, allow children to recognize colors and shades independently. The cards are 4½”x 3½” in size and made from whiteboard material.
