Color Addition Worksheet: Space Adventure!
This worksheet builds addition fluency by having children solve simple equations and then use each answer to determine which color to use in a corresponding section of a space-themed picture. For five- to seven-year-olds, this color-by-number format adds motivation to solve each problem accurately, since a wrong answer means the wrong color goes in the wrong spot and the final picture won't come together correctly.

How to use this worksheet
Look at the color key at the top of the page together, noting which color corresponds to each possible answer. Have your child solve the first addition problem, writing or saying the answer. Ask them to find that number in the color key and use the matching color to fill in the corresponding section of the space picture. Continue solving each problem and coloring section by section until the full space scene is revealed.
