Class Experience

Hey there, Minecraft fans! In this class, we will learn (or review if you have already learned) how to calculate area and perimeter... MINECRAFT STYLE! (PLEASE NOTE: If you have taken my Fortnite Area and Perimeter class, this lesson is very similar and may be redundant. I would recommend choosing one or the other! :)  )

We will start our class off by sharing something about ourselves (you may bring a Minecraft object or share something you would like about the game). We will then learn about finding area and perimeter through interactive Minecraft slides. Don't worry- I won't be doing all of the talking! There will be plenty of sharing ideas and answers from YOU! We will have fun discussing Minecraft and doing some calculations together, as a team. The last portion of class will be dedicated to creating YOUR OWN Minecraft city map! I will be making my own map, right along side you. We will make time at the end of class for those that would like to share their maps and calculations.

Please note, students take ownership of their maps and enjoy making their creations very detailed. Therefore, maps may not be fully completed by the end of class- but that's okay! You will have the tools and knowledge to continue to complete your map after class. Be sure to share your finished map and calculations with us!

Learning Goals

By the end of class, students will be able to apply the area and perimeter formulas in real world and mathematical problems.

Hello, scholars! 👋 My name is Marissa Merrill, and I'm a certified elementary teacher with a bachelor's degree in elementary education and an endorsement in reading development (Pre K - 12). 🎓 I hold an active state teaching license and am a TESOL (Teaching English as a Second Language) certified instructor! 👩‍🏫

With over 6 years of experience teaching in-person and virtual classrooms, I've had the pleasure of working with all grades, ranging from Pre K to 5th. 🍎 I am passionate about creating a positive and engaging learning environment where every student can thrive! 🌈

Teaching is not just a job for me; it's a calling. I believe that education is the key to unlocking endless possibilities for our future generations. 🗝️ I strive to inspire my students to become lifelong learners and to help them develop the skills they need to succeed both in and out of the classroom. ✊

When I'm not teaching, you can find me out on the golf course 🏌️‍♀️, exploring new places ✈️, or trying out new recipes 🍪 in the kitchen. I believe in living life to the fullest and bringing that same energy and enthusiasm to my classroom. 🤩

So, if you're looking for a dynamic and passionate teacher who is dedicated to making learning meaningful and engaging, then look no further! 🧠 Let's work together to achieve great things and have a ton of fun along the way! 😄
