- Does your child love playing Minecraft? This awesome 1-hour free intro class will introduce your child to Minecraft Education and how to code using it. We will show how to setup Minecraft Education first and then get everyone started on a self-guided tutorial that teaches basics of block coding and some key concepts. The tutorial let your child code a series of steps to prevent the spread of fire, save a village, and bring life back into a cool forest with the help of artificial intelligence. This is a great intro class to try before moving up to Minecraft Coding Quest which will go a lot deeper into different coding skills. We will get the tutorial started. It is a long tutorial and most of students will not be able to finish it, which is fine. The goal of the class is to introduce students to the most basic coding concepts. This free intro class is not a small group class. Minecraft Coding Quest Unit 1-3 are small group classes with no more than 5 students.
- Grades 4-6
