Number to Color Match

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a color-by-number activity designed to combine number recognition with color matching skills. At the top of the worksheet, numbers 1 through 5 are displayed, each colored with a different shade: red, yellow, green, blue, and purple. Below this key, a series of circles contain the numbers 1 through 5 in a random order. The student’s task is to color each number according to the color code provided, matching each number with its corresponding color.

The worksheet teaches children to identify numbers and associate them with specific colors, reinforcing both numerical and color recognition. By coloring the numbers according to the key, students practice following instructions and enhance their ability to match abstract concepts (like numbers) with concrete attributes (like colors). This activity also helps in developing fine motor skills as the child works to color within the specific areas. Moreover, it can serve as an enjoyable way to consolidate a child’s understanding of both numbers and colors through a hands-on activity.
