Where can I find fun colorful math worksheets for elementary students online?
I’ve looked at sites with free printables but they aren’t fun or colorful enough for kids. Does anyone know a site with free and good worksheets? What about a site with worksheets which I can buy?
All else fails you can make your own.
I’m not really a huge fan of worksheets…only when done in conjuction to a hands on activity where they are actually involved (kids 8 and under especially learn via being involved and it doesn’t hurt with older kids)
So how about you plan a hands on activity with a worksheet as a follow up? For example, have them measure things around the classroom and mark their results on a worksheet you’ve made? Or go on a scavenger hunt? etc. Be creative.
