Teachers like you said:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I used these and the other seasonal mystery pictures with my 4th graders. OMG! They loved to work these out as a review tool before assessments. However, they would get so upset when their picture was wrong because they rushed. I love the many lessons that were taught using these pages. I will continue to use these in the years to come. –Erin G.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My students love coloring and this was a great way for them to truly analyze and engage with standards while being a more "grown-up" version of a mystery picture. They loved trying to guess what the pictures would be and it was easy for me to see which students were struggling because the colors in their picture looked off! –Emily F.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These color by number comprehension question pages are the perfect addition to review centers and independent practice. The question stems are on point with the standards they represent and the pictures created are colorful and fun. Using the analytical and creative parts of the brain in such a fun way has surely increased success in my classroom! –Alayna W.
