How to color by number
- Look at the numbers in front of each crayon at the top of the page.
- Can your child read the colours written there? If not, help them read the word and they can colour in the crayons in the correct colour. This way they can continue independently.
- For number recognition: read the numbers in the picture and colour those spaces in the correct colour shown by the crayons.
- For addition and subtraction: read the math questions on the colouring pages, write in the answers then check above to see what colour each space should be.
