It’s a print-and-go and artsy packet, and if your students love color-by-number, color-by-code, or sketch notes, they’ll love this 4-in-1 Doodle Notes & Practice lesson.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Christine M. – “I put this out as an extra credit assignment for my 8th graders at the end of the square and cube roots unit. The students who chose to do it seemed to enjoy the 'doodle' part because it was different than a typical color-by-number task. Thank you!”
