Minecraft Report


Minecraft in some people’s eyes is a game that is not educational and therefore should not be played at school; they say it is a waste of time.  In my opinion it is a creative program that can be used as a game or for education. 

What is Minecraft?
Minecraft is a fun and creative game about placing blocks and doing anything you can imagine.  Minecraft is a sandbox game which allows players to build buildings lakes and much more out of coloured and textured cubes in a 3D world.

Why is it educational?
Minecraft is educational because you could use it for maths (Area and Perimeter by using each block as a centimetre.)It is also educational because It lets you use your imagination and that inspires kids to read and write.

About Minecraft
Minecraft was originally created by Markus Persson, It started out as a small game that turned into a huge game it is today.

Minecraft is a great game, is it good for school it is up to you.
