Why Use This Autumn Colors Write the Room Activity?
Write the room activities have many benefits for early elementary students. Here are some of the top reasons these activities are so popular with teachers:
Promotes Movement
Write the room gets kids out of their seats, wandering around the classroom. After sitting for lessons, students need an opportunity to move. Hunting down prompts and recording responses incorporates physical activity into the day.
Allows Choice
With prompts placed all around, children get to choose which one to go to first. They are in charge of their learning, which builds confidence. Students can tackle colors they love first, and then track down the rest of them.
Practices Handwriting
Copying down the names of each color is great handwriting practice. Too much work is done on devices now, so write the room gives students that much-needed handwriting time. Neat printing and cursive skills improve.
Boost Vocabulary
Sometimes colors are hard, and we don't know the name of them. Or we don't know how to spell them. That's one of the reasons I love this Write the Room. It's a shame-free way to practice spelling and color names.

Place the printed autumn leaves strategically around the room. Make sure they are at a child's eye level and spaced out for easy exploration. I like to use the same general area for each new Write the Room activity in my class.
Pro Tip: Make sure there are places where they can put their clipboards down!
3. Let the Hunt Begin!
Invite the children to explore the room and find the autumn leaves.
As they discover each leaf, encourage them to observe its shape, color, and details.
