Color by sum pictures

Color every square whose sum makes the target number, for example 10, to reveal a hidden picture.

About this worksheet

A grid of addition facts hides a picture. Students work out each sum and color only the squares that make the target, such as 10. The picture appears when they are right, so it doubles as a self-check.

Wrong squares are near misses (sums one to four away), so students must add rather than guess. Choose a target from 6 to 12 and a picture; the answer key shows the finished image.
