🎨 Colours All Around Me: 'What colour is it?'

A fully interactive A1 Teens vocabulary-and-speaking lesson built around a bright, relatable theme — colours in everyday life. Students warm up with four reflection questions about the colours around them, then study a visual colour palette (12 named swatches: red, blue, green, yellow, orange, purple, pink, brown, black, white, grey, gold). A language-focus block teaches how to ask 'What colour is it?' for one thing and 'What colour are they?' for many, with clear formula cards and It's / They're answers. A word-order table shows that the colour comes before the noun (a red car, not a car red), covers a vs. an, and introduces light/dark. Nine essential phrases are chipped for quick memorisation. The reading is an original first-person bedroom tour by Nora, where every colour word and every form of 'to be' is bolded and key words have hover-tooltip definitions. Ten A1 vocabulary items appear in a horizontally-scrollable table with colour dots, part of speech, simple definitions and examples, and six core words get detailed flashcards. Practice includes 8 contextualised fill-in-the-blank questions — some with inline colour swatches as visual clues — with hints, live validation, and score tracking; a 'colour hunt' speaking task with partner prompts and a model dialogue; a guided writing task with a five-point checklist and live word counter; and a full 8-question multiple-choice quiz with progress bar, per-question explanations, a conic-gradient result circle with tiered feedback, and localStorage persistence.
