Ways to use them

  • Math centers: a color by number is a whole center on its own. The finished picture tells a student whether the work went right before the teacher checks it.
  • Early finishers: the word searches take ten to twenty minutes, and page 2 of each puts the words to work: spelling for grades 1 and 2, sentences for grades 3 to 5.
  • Science and reading block: read Why Leaves Change Color together, then collect leaves outside and sort them by color.
  • The week before Halloween: every sheet here stays on task and classroom-friendly, with pumpkins, harvest and fall leaves.
