Why a Minecraft Theme?

Some of you might be wondering why I decided to go with a Minecraft Theme in my classroom next year.  Am I jumping on a bandwagon?  A bit, I suppose.  The idea occurred to me earlier this year when my daughter had a reading project.  She was supposed to draw a map of her book setting....which is a pretty common assignment, right?  She was kinda grumping about it...even though she is a pretty artistic kiddo.  So, I suggested that she make her map on Minecraft.  She LOVED it.  She put so much more thought into it and she really enjoyed it.  (We took a screenshot and then printed it as a poster using kidpix)

That planted the seed.....  Minecraft in the classroom?  Why, yes...I think so.  Then I went to a Technology conference, and there were several sessions dedicated to Minecraft.  I am now working to see if I will be allowed to use Minecraft as more than just decorations.  I can tell you this...it will definitely be an option for projects, but in typical fashion...I want MORE. 

Stay tuned.
