Open to all 3-12th grade Compton Unified School Students
Over the past 9 months, we’ve seen wildlife roam free while people isolate to stay healthy. Whales have changed their migration patterns due to fewer ships, sea turtles have laid record numbers of eggs on beaches empty of humans, and wild monkeys have taken over city streets.
These stories cause us to wonder: what if we could redesign our human environment to accommodate the animal world? What would it be like if animals could still roam free within human environments?
For the first-ever Minecraft Education Global Build Championship, we’re inviting students around the world to develop creative environmental solutions that allow animals and humans to share space together. Students can choose between designing a school, home, work, or public space and select one of five biomes for their build in the Global Championship World Template.
Register! Students are allowed to register by themselves or teachers can register students.
Build! Design and build a space for humans and animals to coexist together! You can find prompts and build areas in five biomes in the Global Championship World Template. Teams will receive extra credit for incorporating one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Using the Prompt below, challenge your student teams to design and build a space for humans and animals to coexist in the provided world template! Use our Educator Guide to help facilitate learning.
Submit! Each team will need to provide a short game recording on Flipgrid of their finished build and provide a description in the Flipgrid Recording.
Submissions are due December 4th for District Competition!
