Minecraft Place Back to School Event
September 9, 8 PM Eastern time
Join us for the first Minecraft Monday of the new year. We have a whole new creative world that has barely been touched! Come build and explore anytime that is convenient for you!
On Monday, September 9, at 8 PM, we will meet in Minecraft and Discord to play together and talk about our plans for using Minecraft in instruction. We have members who have experience with this and would love to share our experiences and ideas. Tell us what you are teaching and we will help you construct a Minecraft experience to help your students with mastery!
