Pixel Art
Mon, Nov 11, 2024 8:00 AM

Students make pixel art using the Learning Resources Pixel Art Challenge board game.

Stage 1: Match and build

Children use the colored pixel cubes to match the selected picture. They look at the picture and try to locate on the horizontal & vertical axes where each cube must be put in order to achieve the picture duplicate.

Stage 2: Color by number

Each color is represented by a specific number. The mystery picture appears only as numbers on the grid. When the childrren put all the pixel cubes correctly, the image is revealed.

Stage 3: Coordinates

Use pre-selected easy pictures with only a few pixel cubes and give the child just coordinates (letter+number) in order to put the correct pixel cube on the grid and reveal the image.
