Join this fun and educational Minecraft course celebrating July 4th with an exciting chemistry ballon project and much more for Minecraft Bedrock or Education Editions (not Java). Your child will learn to compound, craft, and create red, white, and blue helium balloons, access many colors of sparklers, craft red, white, and blue fireworks, create an American flag in Minecraft, and engineer a Redstone firework rocket launcher for a firework display.

My inclusive teaching style features step-by-step instructions with auditory narration and visual aids, aiding all learners as they follow along. This course is strength-based and interest-led, welcoming all learners to participate at their own comfort level. Interaction welcomed and optional.
