Minecraft Code: Avatar the Last Airbender For children entering grades 3–5 The balance of the Minecraft world is disrupted! In this riveting class, students will dive into the immersive world of Avatar the Last Airbender, harnessing the power of coding to master the 4 elements: air, water, earth, and fire! Each session uncovers a new element for our young coders to explore and conquer, each with its unique challenges and mysteries. From the towering mountains to the depths of the oceans, from molten lava caverns to expansive plains of gusting winds, the Minecraft world is awaiting your command! Students will embark on an unforgettable journey, putting their coding skills to the ultimate test in an adventure of creativity, problem-solving, and elemental mastery! Projects include: Airbending using levitation potion abilities, Waterbending using enchantments, Earthbending using loops, random numbers and shapes, Metalbending using loops and agent manipulation, culminating in the Avatar State—a grand test of integrating all coding concepts learned.
