Shirt Color Graphing

Included in this activity are shirt color cards, header card, shirt color labels, and graphing sheet. Cards are designed for use in a pocket chart. Great for an All About Me theme or for use during Morning Meeting. Available below in both full-color and black and white.

The color PDF has a page of directions with a “What color is your shirt?” header card, four pages of shirt cards, and a tally graph. The shirt cards come in red, yellow, black, brown, blue, purple, green and orange, with and without the color word, plus blank shirts to color. The graph has a column and total for each of the eight colors.

Ways to use it

• Morning meeting: Have each child pick the card that matches their shirt and put it in the pocket chart under the right color.
• Tally it: Use the graph to make a tally mark for each child’s shirt color and add up the totals.
• Compare: Ask which color has the most, which has the least and how many more one color has than another.
• Color words: Use the cards with words to practice reading color words.
• Other colors: Children can color a blank shirt card if their shirt doesn’t match one of the colors.
• Graph again: Repeat the graph on another day and compare the results.
