Today was day 1 of the minecraft project.
Some might say I ought to take my own advice. Some might say that perhaps a certain teacher shouldn’t try to jump into the fire feet first and let a bunch of 13 yr olds loose with a minecraft project from scratch without pre-installing the software for them.
Well to those people I say, Ye of Little Faith! Nothing ventured, nothing gained! And… Actually, yes. Perhaps I should’ve downloaded minecraft onto the SD cards before the lesson rather than asking the kids to do it.
But, we tried. One team succeeded. The others were foiled by the limitations of our school Internet. This setback didn’t stop them from getting excited about the project as a whole which is a good sign. However, this evening I have installed minecraft on all of the cards – tomorrow is another day, and that day heralds the joys of coding 🙂
