This page by the numbers
The picture has 160 numbered squares on a 16 x 10 grid, colored with 4 crayon colors. Blue (number 36) fills the most squares: 75 of them. Black (number 60) is used the least, with 1. Every answer is a number from 6 to 60, so each answer matches one color in the key.
- 6 = light blue: 66 squares
- 28 = white: 18 squares
- 36 = blue: 75 squares
- 60 = black: 1 square
Coloring ideas
- Skip-count out loud to check any fact you are not sure about.
- Follow the color key exactly to see the mystery picture appear.
- Use markers for bold, even squares.
- Color one number at a time: find all the 1s, then all the 2s, and so on.
