Skills Test. Challenge Yourself!!
 
Hi guys,
 
You can use this activity to test your students � skills. Trick your friends with this cool test.
Now, try it yourself. I got confused !!
 
Look at the words and say the COLOUR, not the word.

eg: for Blue you say �red� Easy, right? Wrong!!
Make sure you say every colour.


Green Red Green

Red Purple Blue

Blue Red Orange

Purple Orange Green

Left � Right Conflict
Your Right Brain Tries To Say The Colour,
But Your Left Brain Insists On Reading The Word.
Hugs,

This is really good, Nebal. You can actually feel your brain switching and trying to stay on the path, but slipping. I love these brain teasers. Thanks, Nebal

green "blue" was my end :-)))

it is really difficult...
one trick - try focus to the distance... so you can �t see all the words properly and you can concentrate on the colours only... :-)
