What will be taught? Students will learn fundamental geometry concepts, including area, perimeter, symmetry, and volume, through hands-on Minecraft builds. They will explore geometric shapes and apply mathematical principles to real-world structures. What topics will be covered? ✔ Geometric Shapes – Squares, rectangles, triangles, circles 📏 Area & Perimeter – Calculating dimensions in builds 🔺 3D Shapes & Volume – Exploring cubes, pyramids, and domes 🔄 Symmetry & Patterns – Understanding balance in structures 🏀 Real-World Builds – Creating domes, pyramids, and basketball courts How is the class structured? 1️⃣ Concept Introduction – Explanation of the day's topic 2️⃣ Demonstration – Guided example in Minecraft 3️⃣ Hands-on Build Activity – Students construct their own designs 4️⃣ Discussion & Review – Recap of key takeaways and student presentations How will it be taught? The course is taught through interactive explanations, guided builds, and collaborative projects. Learners will actively engage in constructing various geometric structures while applying mathematical principles in a fun, practical way. Teaching Style 🎯 Project-Based Learning – Hands-on builds reinforce concepts 🛠️ Creative Problem-Solving – Encourages exploration and discovery 💡 Student-Centered Approach – Lessons adapt to learners’ ideas and designs Learner Interaction 💬 Live Discussions – Explore geometry concepts together 🎮 Guided Demonstrations – Step-by-step Minecraft builds 🏗️ Hands-On Activities – Students construct their own designs 🎯 Games & Challenges – Reinforce learning through play 📺 Slides & Video Clips – Visual explanations for clarity 📢 Collaborative Feedback – Students showcase and refine builds This structured, interactive approach ensures students develop a strong understanding of geometry while having fun in Minecraft. Would you like any refinements? 🚀

Supply List
If the student wants to join the world and play together they will need: - Minecraft BEDROCK edition - which is available on PC, Xbox, Playstation, Mobile, Nintendo Switch, and more! - Signed into your Microsoft account (so we can add each other as friends) If the student wants to join to work on their world and talk about Minecraft with others but NOT play on the server, the above is not required. Note: Bedrock version does not work on Mac.
