6) This is for homework (Obj. B-81)
Make Your Own Radio Image Look at this page and make your own radio image by using the pixel sheet provided by the teacher. There are six "pixels" from "0" to "5" Choose 6 pencils each with a different number and assign only one color to one pixel number. For example: 0 = black, 1 = red, 2 = blue, 3 =green, 4 = yellow, 5 = violet. All pixel squares should be filled-in.
