Adding and subtracting fractions color by number answer key

Problems require students to:

  • Add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers with unlike denominators
  • Solve word problems by adding or subtracting fractions and mixed numbers with unlike denominators

There are 3 paper coloring versions and 1 Google Slides version:

Version A has the most detailed coloring, for students who work quickly.

Versions B and C:

  • Have 5 problems that are different from Version A. These 5 are a little easier—smaller denominators, easier to simplify (if simplifying is necessary.)
  • Have less detailed coloring than A; B and C have slightly different coloring

Google Slides version:

  • Same problems as paper versions B and C
  • Coloring instructions and link to Google Slides file are in PDF

Also includes 2 coloring pages with no numbers, for students to color their own way, for fun.

What teachers are saying about this resource:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“This is a great piece for review and/or fill in work over time. Students can complete a couple of problems over several days when they have time after finishing the daily assignment or it can be the full assignment itself.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“Used this for student work during a sub day and it was perfect! Students were engaged and practicing what we were learning in class!”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”My students enjoyed this as a review of the fifth grade skills especially since they could match and color their answers. They have asked for more practice pages like this.”

Being a military wife, I've taught at 8 different schools in the past 11 years in 4 different states! But, moving around this much has exposed me to so many valuable teaching experiences that I wouldn't change it for anything. I have taught all grades from 5 - 12, and just about every conceivable subject matter. Mostly, I've focused on teaching students with learning disabilities, which is one of the motivating factors behind my Ph.D. in Educational Psychology.
