Properties of Ellipses Color by Number

With this activity, students will find the center, vertices, co-vertices, foci, and length of major/minor axes of given equations of ellipses. Then, they will color their answers as directed to reveal a beautiful, colorful mandala! As an added bonus, the final products make fabulous classroom decor!

This activity is an excellent resource for sub plans, enrichment/reinforcement, early finishers, and extra practice with some fun. It is especially useful for end-of-year practice, spiral review, and motivated practice when students are exhausted from standardized testing or mentally “checked out” before a long break (hello summer!). Teachers and students alike enjoy motivating activities, so engage your students today with these fun coloring activities!
