How to use it
Set out crayons or colored pencils and look at the whole picture together first. Talk about what is being colored to practice the words that go with it. It is one of the easier sheets for Grade 2, good as a warm-up or a first look at the skill.
An answer key comes with it as a separate page that grown-ups download after signing in.
Tip for grown-ups: Check the color key together, then color one number at a time across the whole picture.
Done on paper? A grown-up can record it on the child's page in PlayOwl; downloading alone doesn't count as finished.
