Rainbow Xylophones!

Here's a good lesson I did with Kinder and 1st grade.  It is called Rainbow Xylophones.  This was during our lesson on colors and reviewing the order of the colors based on primaries and secondaries. 

I prepped construction paper in the rainbow colors for every student.  They had to glue them down in rainbow order.  After they were done gluing, they added small details and they had to write the words Rainbow Xylophone!  To add a little zazz to this lesson, I borrowed a Xylophone from the music teacher and played a little for my students!  If they finished correctly and on time, I let them play a little on it as well.  The smile and "I did it!" on their faces when they got the right order was worth all of the prep time it took!
