Elementary School Hosts In-house Minecraft Competition

Westminster’s elementary school faculty hosted an in-house Minecraft competition for our Tech Time (TT) and Project Lead the Way (PLTW) students! Third, fourth and fifth graders took part in the competition. The students were asked to design an environment where humans lived without affecting different animal populations.
Third-grade students were tasked to protect bees, fourth-grade students had to protect pandas and fifth-grade were asked to protect all of the turtles in their Minecraft world. The students also conducted research on their designated animal populations, they evaluated the effects that COVID-19 has had on each animal, and created a presentation that demonstrated their Minecraft world as well as laid out their research. All projects were judged and first, second and third place prizes were distributed at the end of the competition. Congratulations to these students for a job well done:
