Level Up - Achievement Unlocked!
This week we found out the Minecraft Building Challenge! We were given a choice of 4 locations in Calgary to enhance or create:
Fort Calgary
Sien Lok Park
Green Line underground station
Outdoor space at the downtown Calgary Public Library
Before we are able to begin our build, we need to do some research! First, we were given the Calgary Councils Strategic Direction document and summarized the document in our Minecraft groups. We explored the Council's Guiding Principles and Focus Areas.
Once students had a good understanding of the City of Calgary priorities and they familiarized themselves with the requirements of their build site, it was time to work with their group members to jot down ideas for their design. For each idea, students had to explain how it supports vibrancy and sustainability and how it makes a connection to economic resilience and/or social resilience and/or climate resilience.
We can't wait to continue working on building and designing our build sites!
