As one of our introduction lesson to the color wheel, I gave each table a bowl of miscellaneous items to plot (using teamwork) on their wheel. They had a variety of colors, including ones that did not quite "fit" on purpose! I watched to see how kids would respond, how it would spark conversation and finally, how they might socially come to an agreement on its placement. This was a great way to start discussing intermediate colors (between one primary and secondary neighbor.) They really enjoyed this. Thanks for all of the bloggers who inspired this idea!
