How to Use This Pack

Four pictures to color by code. Every space holds a fact: children solve it, find the answer in the color key at the top, and color the space that color. Pages 1 and 2 are adding within 20, with sums from 10 to 19: a turkey, then a sunflower and a pumpkin. Pages 3 and 4 are subtracting within 20: a bowl of cranberry sauce, then a roast turkey and a pumpkin pie. Some colors have two answers ("12 or 16"), and a space too small for a fact shows it in a column or shows just its answer.

In the Classroom

Use the adding pages first and the subtracting pages a few days later, or give each child the page that fits. Making a ten helps with the adding facts (8 + 5 is 8 + 2 + 3), and thinking of the adding fact helps with subtracting. Color the key's circles together before starting.

At Home

Solve a few facts aloud together, then let your child color those spaces. If a space turns out the wrong color, solve its fact again together.

Tips for Success

Solve the fact first, then find its answer in the key
Some colors have two answers: look at both
Make a ten to add: 9 + 6 is 10 + 5
A tiny space with nothing in it: color it like the part it belongs to
