My Project

In the final unit of our media lessons, students are taught how to engineer and build in Minecraft Education. Each student in grades 3-5 is assigned a Chromebook and uses it to complete these Minecraft projects. However, if you have ever tried to play Minecraft without a mouse, you would know how difficult it can be.

Providing computer mice for each student to use while in the media center will set each student up for success when building their Minecraft Education projects.

When students can play with the computer mice, they are more successful and less frustrated. Minecraft has a variety of controls and codes, and having a computer mouse for each student would make a huge difference.
