    In most cases i’ve seen it’s like this:

    Blue - (insert your country’s language)

    Red - Math

    Green - Science

    Yellow - History & Geography

    For other subjects it varies from school to school.

    In my times I don’t recall such association, so I’m making this up.

    It depends a lot of the curriculum, but I’d try something like:

    • Literature - purple, due to purple prose. #7F007F.
    • Native language, textual comprehension - red; fire, home. #BF0000.
    • Any non-native language, including “foreign” ones and government ones - yellow? #BFBF00 fits I guess?
    • Maths - black. Mostly because the most important number is zero, so it gets #000000.
    • Chemistry - blue because it’s a colour that you barely see in nature, #0000BF. (It reminds me copper sulphate.)
    • Biology - green, #00BF00.
    • Physics - can I get ultraviolet here? If not, probably grey, #7F7F7F.
    • Geography - if not going with an earthy hue I’d not take it seriously, so #3F1F00.
    • History - rose to remind you that it’s always seen with rose-coloured glasses, so #FFAFAF.

    Philosophy, computer stuff, civic order, similar: no idea.

    From my perspective in Germany:

    • Yellow is English
    • Blue is math
    • Red is German
    • Dark green is biology
    • Light green is chemistry
    • Purple is music
    • Pink history

    Color? In the USA we don’t have such standard. We had multiple colors for the same subject from teacher to teacher or year to year. Sometimes colors overlapped.

    Language Arts- dark yellow. Science - bright blue History and Geography- green Math - red Religion - purple Mine is probably different because I was homeschooled, but other people who were homeschooled may agree.

    I used to have them all color-coded so I could keep my notebooks organized. I do not remember the colors and I threw those out ages ago.
