Product description

From the author

Color Domino Activity Printable contains three sets of 28 pieces: colors only, color names only and mixed colors with names. The six-page PDF includes a cover, terms, directions and three sheets of domino pieces.

Print and cut out a chosen set; laminate if desired. Students connect matching ends and say the color names as they play. Start with visual matching, then introduce written names. The creator suggests printing two copies per set, adjusted for group size.
