Learning through Science, Technology, Engineering and Math
Minecraft is a sandbox-adventure video game. The style is called “sandbox” because the sandbox mode provides a creative landscape with no fixed goal and endless possibilities.
It immerses children in creative thinking, geometry, and even geology and engineering as they build and explore worlds of imaginative block structures.
Its blocky design is rather child-like, too as characters’ heads are square, colours appear in chunks, and trees look like they were grown in a Lego lab.
