Learning Needs
This game based interactive class is intentionally designed for students with unique learning needs. As a neurodivergent educator, I offer multi sensory activities to support different learning styles (ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and more!)
Parental Guidance
Learners will need access to any version of the Minecraft game to participate in this class. I will use Minecraft Bedrock edition on an iPad to demonstrate the builds, but learners are welcome to use Minecraft Education Edition or Java as well.
Each learner will work individually on their own device. Students will not play in the same server or realm with teacher or other learners. No need to share gamertags. Minecraft players comfortable placing blocks and moving in the world will have the skills needed to complete the projects.
Note: This class is not an official Minecraft product and I am not affiliated or associated with Mojang. The class image is from my own Minecraft game.
Pre-Requisites
Students should be familiar with the alphabet and be comfortable placing blocks and moving around inside Minecraft.
Supply List
Any version (Bedrock, Java, Education Edition) of Minecraft on any device (iPad, Nintendo Switch, Computer, Tablet, Playstation, Xbox, etc)
Not an official Minecraft product. Not approved or associated with Mojang.
