Python / Minecraft programming for kids ages 8-16 – play and learn

Does your child love Minecraft? We know how to use this hobby to learn the Python programming language. There is a specific development based on Minecraft and the Python programming language for this purpose. Your child’s attraction to this game will teach them the basics of programming, which will come in handy in the future to build a career in the IT world.

Minecraft curriculum

Kids learn how to program in a Minecraft environment using one of the most advanced and popular programming languages, Python. Younger children are taught Minecraft in Scratch with no training. The incentive is the ability to level up a hero in minutes.

By learning online individually with a teacher, your child will develop algorithmic thinking, understand the connections in programming and what’s going on in the game of Minecraft, write algorithms and find bugs in them. By the end of the course, your child will have built several projects of their using programming.

Programming is as grand as exploring Minecraft’s virtual reality. With a bit of imagination, you can create anything here. And by controlling the virtual world through Python, you can unleash your potential. Taking your first steps in IT is not easy. First, you have to learn some tedious coding. “Minecraft for Kids” lessons will help you create new things and watch the result.

Courses are based on the visualization of concepts and implementation in virtual space. Your child will design three-dimensional universes, manage them, and have a fun and rewarding time.

Why Minecraft for kids?

Students like Minecraft, but parents do not always approve of such a child’s enthusiasm. Therefore, why not take advantage of your child’s passion and direct it in a helpful direction? Lessons will allow the proper use of digital tools and not just spending time mindlessly in the game. The use of Python will encourage an engaging and educational process of play. It is possible with a small effort to develop something unique and functional.

Schoolchildren will master the basics of programming and mathematical knowledge. All these skills are suitable for adult life. Programming Minecraft is not just a place to play games and a learning environment. Students will create his dimension, in which he will master MakeCode. The program contains blocks and can convert to Javascript in one click. The courses will allow:

  • develop critical thinking;
  • work in a team;
  • solve problems creatively;
  • analyze the situation;
  • plan actions in advance;
  • to negotiate.

The constructor game is recognized as a true phenomenon in the industry. In 2014, it was acquired by Microsoft Corporation, which caused a push for development. It manifested itself through a new way of learning complex algorithms. The constructor became part of educational systems around the world. In Sweden, Meinkraft programming is even included in the school curriculum and used as a tool for digital creativity.

What will the students learn?

The “Minecraft for Kids” courses are adapted for schoolchildren 8-16 years old. Programming lessons take place in a personal online format. Logic is going to be developed with the help of the beloved game. Junior high school students study Minecraft on Scratch. But regardless of age, as part of the courses, the young gamer:

– Will master the language Python;

– master the syntax of the language;

– get a basis for further progress in IT;

– learn how to build a structure and perform time-consuming tasks;

– master the environment of Minecraft.

Classes in Minecraft for children will show quick results. At the same time, the program involves the use of Real tools. It is 85% practical and 15% theoretical. Going into an imaginary reality, young IT people will learn the concept of algorithms, cycles and applications. The teacher controls all actions and sees online what happens on the screen. He draws and writes there for a better explanation. The course “Programming in Mineсraft for kids” is the first step to a promising profession. It will teach teamwork and develop spatial thinking.

 

What should you expect?

A computer game format Minecraft course for kids will help them practice algorithmic skills. The teenager will develop characters and a universe. He will also take his first steps in algorithmization. Upon completion, students can move on to lessons in Python. This language is already adult word-processing programming. Minecraft for children is a preparation for more serious topics.

Based on the popular game product, the teacher will introduce the future programmer to basic concepts. By playing, the teenager will see the structure of the code and data types, adapted according to the goals and knowledge of the students. Lessons take place on a convenient schedule, and a certificate is issued at the end of the course.

IT FUTURE will turn a hobby into a beneficial skill. Studying with us has always encouraged further development. We offer materials that are a perfect balance of helpful and exciting.
