📚 Quick Recap

🎯 What you'll practice: Color wheel relationships and WCAG accessibility contrast ratios.

🧠 Section A · Concept Check ● BEGINNER 4 × 1 = 4

1On a color wheel, complementary colors are:
2Blue and orange are an example of:
3WCAG AA requires this minimum contrast for normal body text:
4The Figma plugin for checking accessibility/contrast is:

🧮 Section B · Problem Solving ● INTERMEDIATE 2 + 3×3 = 11

5Colors next to each other on the wheel are called colors.
6The emotional/cultural association of a color is called color .
7Why do analogous color schemes feel harmonious rather than jarring?
8Give an example of a color and its common psychological association.
9Why is 3:1 contrast acceptable for large text but not normal text?

🚀 Section C · Challenge ● CHALLENGE 5

10Design a 3-color palette for a meditation app. Name each color and explain the psychological reasoning behind your choice.

✂ answer key — fold or cut before handing out

1-B   2-B   3-C   4-C  |  5 = analogous   6 = psychology   7 = Because neighboring colors share visual properties (similar hue), so they blend rather than clash   8 = e.g. red = urgency/energy, blue = trust/calm, green = growth/nature   9 = Because larger text is inherently easier to read, so a slightly lower contrast still remains legible  |  10 = Answers vary — e.g. soft blue (calm/trust), sage green (nature/growth), warm cream (comfort/warmth) — all chosen to psychologically reinforce relaxation.
