Black Widow Mystery Subtraction Coloring Page

About this Black Widow subtraction coloring page

This Black Widow page turns subtraction practice into a mystery picture. Students solve each of the subtraction facts, match the answer to the color key, and fill in the square, so the picture only appears when the work is right.

How to use it

Pair it with a short mini-lesson, then let students work at their own pace. Print the worksheet, and use the finished picture to check the work.

Skills and standards

This page supports subtraction fact fluency. It lines up with Common Core standard 1.OA.C.6 and 2.NBT.B.5 (subtract within 20 and within 100). It is typically used with students in grades 1-3.

Teacher tip

For harder facts, have students count up from the smaller number instead of counting back.
