3rd Grade Halloween Math Color by Number: Multiplication & Rounding Mystery Pictures

About this 3rd Grade Halloween Math Mystery Pictures

3rd Grade Halloween Math Mystery Pictures gives third graders real multiplication, rounding and computation practice disguised as a Halloween coloring activity. Students solve a page of problems, look for each answer in a number grid, and color the matching squares to reveal a hidden picture.

Eight pictures each target one skill: writing multiplication equations from arrays, skip counting to find a missing number, multiplication word problems with facts of 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10, multiplication facts of 6, 7, 8 and 9, rounding to the nearest ten, rounding to the nearest hundred, adding within 1,000 with regrouping, and subtracting within 1,000 with regrouping.

Because the picture only works when the math is right, the activity is self-checking. If an answer isn't in the grid, students know to recheck that problem before they color. They can't guess the picture early either, since every square depends on a solved problem.

The jack-o'-lantern, bat and moon, black cat, friendly monster, candy corn, ghost, witch hat and cauldron are all drawn in a friendly style. A 4-week study plan with solving days, coloring days and Fix-it Fridays keeps the month organized, and color answer keys and a Math Mystery Solver certificate are included.

Everything prints in black and white with no prep. Use it for fact fluency practice, rounding review, math centers or a calm, productive Halloween afternoon.
