Aim.—To recognize sequence of five middle hues. To name, match, imitate, write, and arrange them.

SECOND GRADE LESSONS.

1-3.	Review sequence of five middle hues.[1]
4.	Show a hue intermediate between red and yellow. Find it in objects.

21-25.	Find sequence of ten hues on color sphere. Compare with hues of natural objects.
26-30.	Review, using any two hues in sequence for borders and rosettes.

Aim.—To recognize sequence of ten hues, made up of five middle ^[1] hues and the five intermediates. To name, match, write, imitate, and arrange them.

1. The term middle, as used in this course of study, is understood to mean only the five principal hues which stand midway in the scales pf value and chorma. Strictly speaking, their five intermediates are also midway of the scales; but they are obtained by mixture of the five principal huse, as shown in their names and are of secondary importance.
