Unofficial STEM quest for Minecrafters : grades 1-2 / by Morris, Stephanie J.,author.(CARDINAL)839682; Brack, Amanda,illustrator.(CARDINAL)351585;
This colorfully-illustrated, video-game themed learning tool is focused on four critical domains for young, 21st century learners: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. These can be taught in isolation, but teaching them together (using diamond swords, zombies, creepers and redstone traps for added fun) allows for deeper understanding and authentic connections to the world where kids live and play. There are over thirty S.T.E.M. challenges. Each lesson invites gamers to use the same kinds of creativity, critical thinking and problem-solving skills they enjoy using in their favourite video game. Stand back as they go beyond rote learning and enjoy having the freedom to take risks, form theories, and pose unique solutions to complex real-world problems. Whether they're learning binary code, considering the laws of physics, or delving into architectural design, they're finding new interests and building confidence in the classroom and beyond.Ages 6-10.
