Hidden Picture Pixel Art Template (Google Sheets)

A free, self-checking review activity that gives students instant feedback—and gives you less grading.

Build an engaging review in minutes. You type (or paste) 10 questions and answers one time, share a forced-copy link, and students reveal a hidden pixel picture as they answer correctly.

  • Auto-updating score percentage

HOW IT WORKS

Teacher setup

  1. Make a copy of the Google Sheet.

  2. In the Key tab, enter 10 questions and the 10 matching answers.

  3. Share a forced-copy link so every student gets their own copy.

Student activity

  • Students type answers on the activity tab.

  • Correct answers turn green and reveal part of the hidden pixel picture.

  • Incorrect answers turn red so they can try again.

  • The score updates automatically as they work.

WHAT YOU NEED

  • Google Sheets + a student device (Chromebook/laptop/tablet)

  • Google Classroom or your District's Learning Management System (LMS)

FORCE COPY (RECOMMENDED)

To make sure students don’t edit your master file:

  1. Copy your share link.

  2. Replace /edit with /copy.

Example:

  • .../edit → .../copy

From retired HS Business Teacher (NBCT), Global Career Development Facilitator, and Testing Coordinator… to middle school teacher with ZERO Curriculum and ZERO Lesson Plans. Oh—and yes, I have my Admin License… but I didn’t want those admin problems. 😅

After 30 years as a high school educator (Business Education- NBCT, Career Counselor, and Testing Coordinator) I discovered a new way to use all the creativity and tech skills I picked up along the way—by starting my own digital marketing business!

All those years of planning lessons, organizing big projects, and making learning fun? Now I use that magic to help others grow their businesses. I love showing people how to use simple tools and creative ideas to make their work easier—and way more exciting.

Launching this business brings together everything I love: helping others, playing with tech, and trying new things. Whether I’m designing something, sharing time-saving tips, or helping people connect in meaningful ways—I’m here to make a difference.

Let’s team up and turn your creative ideas into something amazing!

Oh—and here’s a twist: during the pandemic, I re-curated a tech toolkit to support the teachers I led. Never thought I would end up needing it myself. But now, after three decades, I’m back in the classroom, using those same tools to work smarter, not harder.

And I’m sharing them with you—because no teacher should have to start from scratch.
