We have had the idea to introduce Minecraft to Y7/8 and Y6 students at Seatoun School. Minecraft is a computer game involving creativity and skill.

Minecraft is a computer game where you can build and create anything you want.

We are not going to use survival apart from challenges where you get limited resources.

We have had the idea to use Minecraft as a class option in problem solving and in Novel Studies and Literacy projects.

We will use Minecraft as a tool on the computers for a lunchtime club and also we were planning to use it as a tool for Problem Solving.

We could also use Minecraft to create a world from our novel studies book. For example If in class we are reading a book together we could build a minecraft world of parts of the book.

We will create a Seatoun School server for Y7/8 students to connect and play multi-player in a creative world. Click here to see some ways in which we are planning to use Minecraft in class [|__1001 Uses for Minecraft in Schools__]

Students will use their already purchased accounts if they have one. If your child does not have a Minecraft account already and you would like them to participate in this activity you can go to this site to purchase one https://minecraft.net/ Minecraft will be an optional activity for students to create and compete against each other in friendly challenges before school and at lunchtimes in a Minecraft club.
