  <div class="message"><p>The Rainbow Song is not only enjoyed by children who respond to the engaging and fun words and melody, teachers love it too.  Why?  Firstly, it teaches the colours of the rainbow in the right order, which is part of the Science national curriculum.  I remember when we had to learn ‘Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain’, a song with a strong tune and easy rhymes is so much easier and a more natural way to learn.  However as well as this, the Rainbow Song is welcomed by educators because it also teaches lots…</p><span class="read-more pdf__hide"><a href="/blog/blog/232880/breaside-school-enjoy-the-rainbow-song">Read more</a></span></div>

<p>How many colours are there in a rainbow?  Whatever the old children’s rhyme says about purple and pink, the colours usually regarded as visible in a prism, when white light is split into it’s component parts are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.  Generations have learned this list using mnemonics such as ‘Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain’ and others, and that does describe the order of the visible light spectrum.</p>

Certainly the kind of quantative outputs that scientists like – measurable, repeatable effects – can be frustratingly thin on the ground… so many of the effects are subtle and subjective, and stem from a range of factors that include personal life experiences, individual skin tones, and varying environmental cues.

<p>True black is not a colour, it is in fact the absence of colour.  As adolescence is a time of emotional upheaval and change, for some it may be about imposing order and fixedness, whilst they attempt to develop their own identity and style.
