Why to use These Christmas Color by Number Worksheets

Color-by-number worksheets are a fun "get to" way for students to practice multiplication fluency. These worksheets ask students to find the product and then find it in a a range of numbers. This helps students with good mental number sense and arithmetic strategies. Also, having students find numbers in a range provides more rigor.

Since my color-by-number worksheets contain more rigor, I provide TWO FREE BONUSES for intervention students. These free bonuses include a personal multiplication chart and 100's chart (to find the product in a range of numbers.)
