 * Topic: Anything connected with colours and moods**

1.COLOURS AND MOODS Colours is one stimulant around us. They are found everywhere, inside and outside us. We are going to link them with things, people, activities and settings. Pictures in this wiki are chosen to help you think of colours and link them with moods and feelings.

2. GET STARTED WITH WRITING - PROSE OR POETRY... - Brainstorm on one or more topics that you have feelings about (Example: a favourite holiday/ weather/ season or a special school event or sports activities etc).

- Associate colours with the topic. Select two colours. (Example: Chinese New Year – gold and red). Write these ideas on a piece of paper first, if you wish.

- Find adjectives to describe each colour. (Example: Blood red, sunshine yellow, midnight black, grassy green etc). Write out examples like “Chinese New Year is crimson red and luxurious gold” or “A rainy day is dull grey and murky brown”

- Once you have selected the colours and the occasion, write a poem or prose, starting with the line that you have already created. After introducing the first line, you could continue with this pattern:

It tastes like … It sounds like … It smells like … It looks like … It makes me feel like …

That is one structure. You are free to explore other structures. Let your imagination flow.
