4th grade had an exciting visit to the DCPS Minecraft lab. We started with a bit of free building, letting our imaginations run wild. Then, we dove into a math session to enhance our understanding of area and volume, tackling problems and creating our own models. The highlight of the day was a group build challenge to design an awesome treehouse. #MinecraftEDU

Providing students with opportunities they might not normally have access to is my favorite part about utilizing @PlayCraftLearn in our @DCPSMinecraft Lab 🧡

A student said today "I've never carved a pumpkin before" while carving a pumpkin in #MinecraftEdu
