To solve this "Read and Colour" task, we need to carefully read the instructions in the box and match each planet or object to its correct colors.
Let’s go step by step:
1.
Uranus and Neptune → colour them
blue
- So both Uranus and Neptune should be colored blue.
2.
Earth → colour it
green and blue
- Earth has land (green) and oceans (blue), so use both colors.
3.
Saturn, Jupiter and Venus → colour them
brown and yellow
- These three planets get a mix of brown and yellow. You can stripe them or blend the colors — as long as both are used.
4.
Mercury → colour it
grey
- Just one color: grey.
5.
Mars → colour it
red
- Mars is known as the Red Planet, so just red.
Also, note that the space shuttle and astronaut are not mentioned in the coloring instructions — so you don’t need to color them unless told otherwise. But since the instruction says “Read and Colour” and only lists planets, we focus on the planets.
Now, let’s double-check:
- Mercury → grey
✔
- Mars → red
✔
- Earth → green and blue
✔
- Venus → brown and yellow
✔
- Jupiter → brown and yellow
✔
- Saturn → brown and yellow
✔
- Uranus → blue
✔
- Neptune → blue
✔
All planets are covered. No extra objects need coloring based on the given rules.
Final Answer:
Colour the planets as follows:
- Mercury: grey
- Mars: red
- Earth: green and blue
- Venus: brown and yellow
- Jupiter: brown and yellow
- Saturn: brown and yellow
- Uranus: blue
- Neptune: blue
