Add and Color by Number

Worksheet Description

This worksheet combines basic addition with coloring. It features a space theme with a central rocket and surrounding stars, each with a simple addition problem inside. Children are instructed to solve the addition problems and then color each section according to the sum, using a color key provided at the bottom of the page. The top of the worksheet has a place for the student’s name, signifying personal use, likely in a classroom setting to make learning math more engaging.

Additionally, the integration of a coloring task serves to enhance fine motor skills and provides a creative outlet for students to express their understanding of the math they’ve learned.
