Step-by-step solution for: Color by Sum: Beach Day | Worksheet | Fun math ...
Let's solve the "Color by Sum" activity titled "A Day at the Beach" step by step.
---
- Solve each addition problem in the image.
- Use the color key to determine which color to use for each sum.
- Then, color the corresponding sections of the picture.
---
- 1 = Green
- 2 = Red
- 3 = Blue
- 4 = Yellow
- 5 = Orange
---
We'll go through each math problem on the image:
#### 🌞 Sun (top right):
- `3 + 1` = 4 → Yellow
#### 🏖️ Sand & Hills:
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
- `2 + 0` = 2 → Red
- `3 + 2` = 5 → Orange
- `1 + 1` = 2 → Red
- `4 + 1` = 5 → Orange
- `3 + 1` = 4 → Yellow
- `2 + 1` = 3 → Blue
- `3 + 0` = 3 → Blue
- `1 + 4` = 5 → Orange
- `0 + 1` = 1 → Green
- `0 + 4` = 4 → Yellow
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
- `2 + 2` = 4 → Yellow
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
Wait — let’s carefully map each shape or section.
---
#### ✔ Sun (star shape):
- `3 + 1` = 4 → Yellow
#### ✔ Triangle (kite):
- `1 + 1` = 2 → Red
- `2 + 0` = 2 → Red
- `3 + 2` = 5 → Orange
- `4 + 1` = 5 → Orange
> So the kite has four parts: two red, two orange.
#### ✔ Beach Ball (circle with lines):
- `0 + 4` = 4 → Yellow
- `1 + 4` = 5 → Orange
- `0 + 1` = 1 → Green
> So three sections: yellow, orange, green
#### ✔ Bucket (cylinder):
- `1 + 1` = 2 → Red
#### ✔ Shovel (rectangle):
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
#### ✔ Sand hill (large curved area):
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green
- `2 + 1` = 3 → Blue
- `3 + 1` = 4 → Yellow
- `3 + 0` = 3 → Blue
- `2 + 2` = 4 → Yellow
#### ✔ Other small areas:
- `1 + 0` = 1 → Green (multiple times)
- `0 + 1` = 1 → Green

1. Sun (star) → Color Yellow
2. Kite (triangle):
- Top-left: `1+1` = 2 → Red
- Top-right: `2+0` = 2 → Red
- Bottom-left: `3+2` = 5 → Orange
- Bottom-right: `4+1` = 5 → Orange
3. Beach Ball (circle):
- Top: `0+4` = 4 → Yellow
- Middle: `1+4` = 5 → Orange
- Bottom: `0+1` = 1 → Green
4. Bucket → `1+1` = 2 → Red
5. Shovel → `1+0` = 1 → Green
6. Sand hills and other shapes:
- `1+0` → Green
- `2+1` → Blue
- `3+1` → Yellow
- `3+0` → Blue
- `2+2` → Yellow
---
- Green (1): Sun rays, shovel, bucket edge, some sand areas
- Red (2): Kite corners, bucket
- Blue (3): Sand hill parts
- Yellow (4): Sun, beach ball top, sand hill
- Orange (5): Kite, beach ball middle, sun?
Wait — the sun is only `3+1=4`, so it should be yellow, not orange.
But the sun has a starburst pattern, so if all its segments are labeled `3+1`, then all are yellow.
So no orange in the sun.

To complete the coloring:
- Color each section based on the sum of the addition problem inside it.
- Use the key:
- 1 → Green
- 2 → Red
- 3 → Blue
- 4 → Yellow
- 5 → Orange
---
- Sun: Yellow (since `3+1=4`)
- Kite: Two red (for 2s), two orange (for 5s)
- Beach ball: Yellow (4), Orange (5), Green (1)
- Bucket: Red (2)
- Shovel: Green (1)
- Sand areas: Mix of Green, Blue, Yellow

✔ Summary of Colors Used:
- Green (1): Sun rays, shovel, bucket edge, some sand areas
- Red (2): Kite corners, bucket
- Blue (3): Sand hill parts
- Yellow (4): Sun, beach ball top, sand hill
- Orange (5): Kite, beach ball middle, sun?
Wait — the sun is only `3+1=4`, so it should be yellow, not orange.
But the sun has a starburst pattern, so if all its segments are labeled `3+1`, then all are yellow.
So no orange in the sun.
