HISTORY OF CINCO DE MAYO

Before you work with these Cinco de Mayo themed color by number worksheets in Spanish, teach your children a little bit more about the history of Cinco de Mayo.

For starters, contrary to popular belief, Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican independence day. It actually celebrates the Battle of Puebla.

I have a brief history of Cinco de Mayo that you can check out here, and I will also leave some fun Youtube Videos below that you can share with your students. 

Then, they can get in the Mexican spirit by coloring these six free Cinco de Mayo color by number worksheets in Spanish!

CINCO DE MAYO COLOR BY NUMBER IN SPANISH: Color word recognition

Unlike in my St. Patrick’s Day color by number pages in Spanish where the color code is represented by a crayon, these Cinco de Mayo color by number worksheets are a little bit trickier.

Instead of the crayon, it has the color word in Spanish. 

Why? 

This will help your little ones begin to recognize and practice colors in Spanish.

If your littles are new to learning the color words in Spanish, I recommend printing off a copy of my color flashcards in Spanish.

You can review it with your students beforehand. For more help, you can hang or put them near your students as a guide when completing these color by number worksheets in Spanish.

While working on their color by number worksheets, they can identify the color word by browsing through the set of color flashcards.

What art supplies should you use?

We like to use a variety of art supplies when working with our color by code worksheets. 

Our go to is markers, but when we really want to get in the coloring zone, I will whip out the watercolor paints and we will go to town.

HOW TO USE THESE FREE PRINTABLE COLOR BY NUMBER CINCO DE MAYO PAGES IN YOUR CLASSROOM

I recommend downloading and printing off several copies of the color by number activity for each student. 

Start by introducing the color flashcards to your students, or by writing the basic Spanish color words on the board.

Then, work through one worksheet at a time and together as a group. Go through and identify the different Spanish numbers on the sheet.

Together go through and quietly fill in the correct colors. Let’s see if everyone’s color on the number sheets look the same!

Once your students get the hang of how the activity works, you can then hand out different sheets to the students and let them try the activity in small groups or individually. 

Go around the room and encourage the students to keep conversations and practice all in Spanish to get the minority language flowing.
