Did you know that bees are one of the most important creatures on our planet? This time, however, we will not focus on their diligence, but on decoding a bee in flight! Our latest worksheet from the series of mystery pictures will allow kids to create a picture of a bee flying against the blue sky, pixel by pixel, while developing important mathematical skills.
A bee is not only a symbol of nature, but also a great opportunity to learn through play. Decoding its small body and wings is an ideal exercise for orientation in space, which will prepare kids for drawing more complex shapes and geometric figures. What’s more, this task requires concentration and precision, which has a great effect on the development of concentration.
- In the PDF file that I am posting here, you will find three pages full of colorful fun:
- The first page is a code, thanks to which children will discover a bee against the blue sky, step by step. Reading pixel by pixel allows for precise code tracing and develops patience.
- The second page contains the solution – a finished image of a bee, which will help children check whether they have read the code correctly and compare their work with the original.
- The third page is a creative challenge! This time, children can try to code the bee themselves – practicing logical thinking and planning.
Mystery picture – pixel art – busy bee
The mystery picture with a flying bee is a great way to combine learning and fun. Thanks to the large squares (1.5 cm) and the ordered code, the task is ideal for younger children who are just starting their adventure with pixel images. It is a great opportunity to practice spatial orientation and precision, while developing the child’s imagination.
The worksheet with a flying bee will be a great addition to classes at school, kindergarten, and at home. Children can not only learn about the role of bees in nature, but also develop their spatial skills and concentration in an interesting and enjoyable way. And at the same time, they will discover how much fun it is to code pixels!
Graphic dictation can be used in various ways:
- coloring the picture according to the given code – children read the code on their own,
- coloring the picture according to the given code by ear – someone is reading the code to the child,
- pasting the image according to the given pattern,
- redrawing the image from the original solution,
- writing the code based on the printed pattern.
