Minecraft Math Games (Self-Paced)
5 exciting Minecraft games where learners must answer math questions to escape an obstacle and avoid certain dooooooooooom! (2nd-4th Grade)
Course Summary
Math has never been more interesting than in these fun Minecraft themed virtual escape room games. Each level consists of 20+ math problems and puzzles to solve as learners make their way through a story filled with obstacles.
Math consists of: addition and subtraction that progress in difficulty with each level, word problems, memory games, patterns, skip counting, identifying polygons and 3D shapes, basic fractions and multiplication with visual aides. Each level has a unique virtual escape room game that has been prepared using Canva Slideshow. Learners will play the game on “slideshow mode” in order to click through the answers. If they choose correctly, they will progress to the next slide. If they choose incorrectly, they will be rerouted to a slide where they will need to respawn to try again. If learners were reading and paying attention to the story, then they will do well during the reading comprehension quiz prepared using Kahoot. Lastly, I have made some fun bonus Minecraft-themed worksheets with educational activities such as word searches, trivia, alphabetical ordering, spelling and parts of speech with MadLibs.
