Week 1
Lesson 1
Setup: Basic Design & Movement Functions
Starting with the basic setup of their game avatar, students will design a Minecraft character and customize it to their liking by adding costumes, accessories and different colors. Once their avatar is established, they will create the different frames needed to show their character’s animated movements. Using a solid level ground in their established world, students will proceed to code the avatar’s motions to move in multiple directions, such as walking left to right and jumping up and down. 
Lesson 2
Combat Action: Attacking & Effects 
Students will learn how to make their game avatar interact with the setting, fight against enemies and break various objects. They will create attack frames to show their avatars striking left and right, where they will be able to hit an enemy or object with a sword and show the visible effects of the interaction. Students will understand how to code the game mechanics of motion through constructing actions and their resulting outcomes.
Lesson 3
Game Objectives: Collectable Prizes & Endgame Cutscenes
Students will learn how to incorporate a main objective or goal into their closed level game play. They will build upon the avatar’s ability to interact with enemies, by creating a collectable item that will be dropped once their opponents are defeated. The avatar can collect and accumulate these items until it fulfills the game’s objective. Upon completion, this will trigger a coded condition causing the level to end and show a congratulatory cutscene for accomplishing the main goal.
