Tips for Educational Coloring

Making It More Than Just Coloring

1. Say it while you color it — "What letter is this? What sound does it make?"
2. Connect to real life — "Can you find something in our house that starts with B?"
3. Count while coloring — "How many fish are on this page? Let's count together!"
4. Write practice — After coloring the letter, practice writing it 5 times

Assessment Through Coloring

• Can the child identify the letter/number?
• Can they follow color-specific directions? ("Color the triangle blue")
• Do they demonstrate understanding of the concept?
