Crew up, Minecraft builders: In this five-session class, we'll be designing a floating palace. Will it have drawbridges, dragon pens, and towers hidden by the clouds? If so, you and your team will create them. The only limit here is your imagination!
In each session, kids collaborate to complete community building challenges on EDMOtopia, EDMO’s multiplayer Minecraft server. Not only will they practice fundamental computer skills such as mouse manipulation, keyboard shortcuts, and 3D spatial reasoning, but also engage in Social Emotional Learning activities centering on respect, empathy, collaboration, and digital etiquette.
Online Camps are 2.5 hour (half day) programming in the style of EDMO Summer Camps, featuring extra movement activities, social emotional learning curriculum and weekly rallies with a fun-filled pie extravaganza!
