My students really like the coloring pages. When I initially tell them that we are going to do some coloring in math class, they look at me like I have two heads and one of them always reminds me that they are too old for coloring. However, within minutes they are totally into it and begging me for more.
I do recommend having students use colored pencils for the coloring pages. They do not break as quickly as crayons and students seem to have more fun with them. I use Crayola's Colored Pencils Classpack and its great. It has 240 colored pencils and it comes in a box that I can store and move them in. I have had it for over 5 years now and I don't see myself replacing it anytime soon.This year, I decided to store them in colored file folders (separated by topic) in a file crate that the students can easily get to. Whenever students finish an assignment early they are allowed to go to the "Fun Crate" and get a worksheet. I have also allowed them to turn them in for extra credit. It is working out wonderfully!
