THE EFFECT OF COLOUR-CODING ON LEARNING ENGLISH SENTENCE STRUCTURE

Colour carries a psychologically relevant meaning, and the colours we see affect our psychological performance. Colour-coding impacts learners’ cognitive processing as material-oriented interventions in multimedia learning. For educational purposes, colours can be used to stimulate neural activity, allowing pupils to learn, memorize, and retain new information more efficiently. Especially for those who are visual learners, the brighter the colours are, the more they are able to capture the attention for particular types of information. (Elliot and Maier: 2012). Colour-Coding Strategy can help pupils make connections, gain knowledge and have a positive impact on attention inside the classroom. So it is not a kind of fun. Using such a strategy in teaching and learning grammar can be as simple as just asking your pupils to take out their booklets and colouring pens and markers. The current research focuses on determining the effectiveness of using colour-coding as a better tool for learning sentence structure at the primary level. In light of the aim, the research’s null hypothesis has been formulated to be tested. The design of one group has been adopted, pre and post-tests used. The sample includes (32) female pupils who are randomly selected from Qubat Al Sakhrah primary school in Mosul city.
