They sketched and designed their perfect park on paper. Afterwards they built their design in Minecraft Education. The chidlren included ideas such as horse stables, an astro pitch, a homeless shelter, tiered seating areas, bbq areas and a swimming pool to name but a few.
In Minecraft for Education children have also had the opportunity to creat Aztecs momuments, Italian styled buildings and design and build our school pond in Minecraft Education. Children embedded their learning y including information signposts beside their minecraft designs, to showcase their learning and understanding.
