Teacher Notes (not visible to students)
This activity was given to students after discussion on pixels and how they form our digital images. We read "The Dot" by Peter Reynolds first and discussed the many different types of dots drawn by the main character. Students were shown many different photos, pixelated photos and given a definition of a pixel.
