Color all Prime Numbers

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents a grid of numbers from 1 to 100 and instructs students to color all the prime numbers red and all the composite numbers green. It is an activity that combines the identification of number types with a visual task. The sheet is clearly divided into ten rows and ten columns, making it easy for students to navigate through the numbers sequentially. The coloring aspect adds an interactive element to the learning process, making it more engaging for the students.

The objective of this worksheet is to reinforce students’ ability to differentiate between prime and composite numbers in a visual and interactive manner. It serves as a practice tool for recognizing prime numbers, which are numbers greater than 1 that have no divisors other than 1 and themselves, and composite numbers, which have additional divisors. This activity also helps students with pattern recognition, as they will begin to see patterns in the distribution of prime and composite numbers across the number grid. Lastly, it provides a hands-on approach to learning, which can be beneficial for students who are visual or tactile learners.
