 Here's yet another variation on my Halloween Cat color-by-something.  In this case, it's a Color-by-Spanish-Numbers (to 100).  It's available in my TPT store for $2.50.  Great way to keep the kids busy on Halloween while reviewing Spanish numbers.

 I put up a new product on Teachers Pay Teachers:  It's a French self-correcting riddle sheet (you can only answer the riddle if your French translations are correct) that focuses on color adjective agreement.  Uses "il / elle est" and some possessives. This is  compatible with lesson 12 of Discovering French Bleu, but it can be used independently as well.

So, I've finally had time to make a color-by equation activity I've been thinking about for a while.  You can find it HERE in my TPT store. It's a winter holiday color-by-number for 5th-7th grade math students. This activity has numbers represented by equations. For example, the number 12 might be represented by the square root of 144; 2 squared times 3; 3 to the second power plus 3; 48/4; or just the number 12. In order for kids to enjoy this activity, they should understand exponents and square roots, as well as order of operations and different ways to represent multiplication and division (dot, x, fraction, slash, division symbol). This activity should not be used for students with trouble seeing small numbers or for children with dyslexia or dysgraphia.

Roughly 1/2 of the numbers are hand-written and ...
