We made brick pixel drawings.  We worked in groups and each group drew an animal on the wall in the courtyard.  We used chalk to draw the pictures.  We got an image from the computer and pixelated it.  We then drew the picture onto the wall using pixels. One brick would have three pixels.  It was hard to divide the bricks into three pixels because some bricks were smaller than others.  One person would tell the others what color to draw the next pixel.  Two others would color the bricks and the other person would use a paintbrush to brush over the chalk to smooth it out.  When we got towards the top of the picture we had to move the table over and stand on it to be able to reach and only one person could reach so they had to color and brush.  This project was a lot of fun.  I liked coloring with the chalk the most. But the chalk would get all over our hands when we were coloring and and it would go everywhere when we would brush the chalk which we didn't like.  My least favorite part was when we had to pixelate it on the computer because that was really confusing.
