About this coloring page
An illustrated color-by-number worksheet with a rainbow with a smiling sun, fluffy clouds and flowers in the grass. Solve the subtraction problem in each space and color it by the answer to reveal the full picture. Kids solve each problem first, then color, which makes it a great math center activity. Color the bands in rainbow order: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple.
This page by the numbers
The picture has 17 numbered spaces, colored with 8 crayon colors. Green (number 4) fills the most spaces: 4 of them. Orange (number 2) is used the least, with 1. Every answer is a number from 1 to 8, so each answer matches one color in the key.
- 1 = red: 2 spaces
- 2 = orange: 1 space
- 3 = yellow: 2 spaces
- 4 = green: 4 spaces
- 5 = light blue: 4 spaces
- 6 = blue: 1 space
- 7 = purple: 1 space
- 8 = white: 2 spaces
Coloring ideas
- Try soft boho colors.
- Check each answer by adding it back to the number taken away.
- Count back on your fingers or the number line for the hardest facts.
- Color one number at a time: find all the 1s, then all the 2s, and so on.
