It's fun to get students to color in Math. They often don't realize that they're doing math because they are doing it differently. Students answer the questions, then color the pictures according to their answers. It's a great way to get students to practice math skills and have some coloring fun!
Summer Math Coloring Fluency
Math fluency is important for students to practice. Some of the math skills that Upper Elementary students need practice with are operations with multiplication and division. These skills will help students to have better number sense. The best way to become better at math is to practice!
In middle school students need a good understanding of variables. Students will use variables in middle school and high school. Giving students extra practice with expressions and equations helps to build their Algebra fluency. Try a coloring activity today!
These are some of the ways you can engage your students math fluency this summer. Summer Math coloring is just one way to practice math skills with a different approach. Students enjoy coloring and creating a picture with math is a great way to practice math fluency today!
