Description: Explore with your students in this year’s Computer Science Education Week an activity around building structures with MakeCode and Math. Students will put their coding skills to the test in this project-based learning activity by solving math problems in order to build their structure on iPad. Students will then enhance their skills by using MakeCode to code the agent to help build their structure using coding fundamentals such as sequences, loops and more. Students will also use iPad’s accessibility features as they dive into the Minecraft world along with gaining tips and tricks in easily sharing portfolios for assessment.

Objectives: 
-Through project-based learning, solve Math problems to find the size of the build using iPad's
-Explain how answers to Math problems were achieved 
-Code with MakeCode to craft specific areas of the build
-Learn how to code using the fundamental concepts of sequences and loops in MakeCode
-Gain insight on iPad’s accessibility and assessment features in Minecraft
