What is Color by Number?


Color-by-number is an activity for a variety of ages. They usually have a picture or illustration that is divided by lines into sections.  Each section contains a number or a problem to solve.  There is a key included that tells you what color each section should be based on what is written in the section.

A List of Authors Doing Virtual Story Time or Art Lessons


It has been amazing seeing all of the people donating their times and talents to help keep our students learning and busy during this crazy time!  One thing I have especially loved is all of the authors who have been doing virtual story times or art lessons.

Here is a list of all the ones I have seen so far.  I will keep adding to the list as I hear about new ones.




Lunch Doodles With Mo Willems  

The author of Knuffle Bunny and the Pigeon Books teaches students how to draw some of his famous characters.  These would make great story starters for students to write their own versions of his books.

Carmen Agra Deedy 

The author of Rita and Ralph's Rotten Day reads this story about two friends who are having trouble being friends.



Jon Scieszka 

The author of The True Story of the Three Little Pigs reads this outrageously funny "other version" of the famous tale of the three little pigs.  This is always one of my students' favorites!




RJ Palcacio 



Author RJ Palacio is reading her best selling book Wonder over on her Twitter page.  She reads a few chapters at a time.  I read this to my class every year, so they have been excited to hear from the author herself!

Kate Messner


Author Kate Messner shares a read-aloud of The Next President: The Unexpected Beginnings and Unwritten Future of America's Presidents along with several other of her books on her YouTube channel

She is also sharing a book club with her chapter book, Ranger in Time: Rescue on the Oregon Trail.  Students can ask her questions about the book or writing as well.

Dav Pilkey


The author of much loved series like Captain Underpants, Dog Man, and Ricky Ricotta has a web page called Dav Pilkey at Home where he shares drawing lessons, excerpts from his books, writing prompts, and more!  If your students LOVE Dav Pilkey as much as mine do, they will love this site!

Chris Van Dusen



Author and illustrator, Chris Van Dusen, shares some drawing lessons and reads A Piglet Named Mercy (which he illustrated) on his Instagram.  He also has how to videos of drawing many of his characters on his YouTube page.

Jamie Lee Curtis

The Best Multiplication Read Alouds


I love combining read-alouds with just about any subject content, and multiplication is no different!  Here are some of my favorite read-alouds for helping your students gain a better understanding of multiplication.


This post contains affiliate links. I earn a small commission each time someone makes a purchase using one of my links, which helps to support the blog.  All opinions are my own and I only promote brands and products that I have used myself and truly love.  

The Best of Times by Greg Tang



Greg Tang uses poetry and illustrations to provide students with rules and strategies for mastering their multiplication facts.






This is a tale of a poor Chinese farmer and his wife. Mr. Haktak finds a brass pot, and after his wife drops her hairpin into it, they realize that it is a magic pot that doubles everything.  

This is a great book for teaching a doubling strategy or introducing the concept of multiplication. 




Author Loreen Leedy introduces the multiplication facts from 0 through 5 with six funny math stories. This book is another perfect introduction to a multiplication unit.



Pablo is excited to help his grandmother (Abuela) sell vegetables at the farmer's market.  See how he uses multiplication to help!  




The family in this book finds themselves receiving a new penguin each and every day! This book is bound to make your kiddos laugh as they count along with the ever growing penguins!
