Touch Me If You Can!  
Submitted by: Elem ALT team
Outline: Students touch objects in the classroom based upon what color is called out.  This is a good warm-up activity.
 
Procedure:
  1. Say a color and students must touch an object in the classroom containing that color.
  2. Once the students master this, choose two colors.  The students come up with some interesting ways to touch both colors at the same time.

 

Variations:

  • Increase the difficulty.  Each object can only be touched by one person.
  • Add a timer.  The time running out produces "The Tickle Monster."
