Educational worksheet for children to learn Spanish color vocabulary using the flags of four Spanish-speaking countries.

This worksheet is designed to help students learn about Hispanic heritage by coloring the flags of four Spanish-speaking countries—Puerto Rico, Mexico, Cuba, and the Dominican Republic—using a color key in Spanish. The goal is to practice Spanish vocabulary for colors while learning about national symbols.

Step-by-Step Solution:

#### 1. Understand the Color Key
The color key provides translations from English to Spanish and phonetic pronunciations:
- Red = *rojo* (ro-ho)
- Blue = *azul* (ah-sool)
- Green = *verde* (vair-day)
- Yellow = *amarillo* (ah-mah-ree-yoh)
- White = *blanco* (blah-n-koh)

Note: Yellow (*amarillo*) is not used in any of these flags, so we won’t need it here.
