Book Week Minecraft Competition 2020

'Curious Creatures, Wild Minds'

The Challenge!

Your challenge is to create a Minecraft world based on the setting of your favourite book! The more detail you can include, the more impressive the world will be.

Include quotes from the text in your world that describe the setting; extra points will be awarded for this! You can even include the characters and events that happen in your book. Don't forget to give your world the title of the book and mention the author too.

To record your your world, you will need to take a video explaining your creation. You will need to use the screen record function on you iPad. Don't forget to talk us through what you have created. Details on how to do this are below. Submit your video by uploading it to Padlet at the link at the bottom of this page. Make sure you video is no more than two minutes long.

The last day to submit your video will be on Wednesday the 9th of September. Winners will be announced on Friday the 11th of September. There will be four winners chosen from across the school.

Let's get mining and crafting!
