What educators are saying
Description
Make finding least common multiple (LCM) more engaging by adding some color!
- Students solve 20 (or 15) problems, find the answer on the coloring sheet/section, and then color - in both print and digital versions!
Check out the Preview and video demo above to see what's included and to see how the Google Slides version works (students will need to know how to use the "Fill color" feature).
Problems require students to:
- Find the least common multiple of 2 and 3 numbers
- Solve word problems that require finding LCM (depending on version)
This easy-prep LCM resource includes:
1) Three print versions, great for differentiation:
Version A:
- Problem sheet with 20 questions (7 word problems)
- Coloring sheet
Version B:
- Problem sheet with 20 questions (no word problems; some smaller numbers than Version A)
- Coloring sheet – less detailed than Version A
Version C:
- Problem sheet with 15 questions (all questions are also in Version A – this version is just shorter; 5 are word problems)
- Coloring sheet – different from other versions – Fall theme
2) One Google Slides version:
- Same problems and same coloring as print Version B
- Students type their answers in the answer box
- Students use the ‘Fill color’ bucket to color the shapes
- Questions are not editable (they are in the background) but the shapes and numbers in the pattern ARE movable.
- Link to Google Slides is after the print items in the PDF download.
3) A notes sheet for how to find LCM using the “ladder method.”
4) Three coloring pages with no numbers, so students can color for fun, create their own color by numbers, or so you can create your own color by number activities for your classes.
What teachers are saying about this resource:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“We used this as part of math centres. The majority of students were able to complete the activity on their own. I taught a grade 7-8 split so the gr 8s used this as review. Great resource!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“My students loved this resource. It was a great way for them to practice and check their understanding.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“The students love the color by numbers! Great resource and practice.”
