Posted Date: 01/23/2023

The Celeste Elementary Minecraft League is learning about problem-solving and effective teamwork two days a week in an after-school program with League sponsor, Marie Heller and their high school team captains, Faolin Wilhelm, Dean Davis, Libia Contreras, and Luke Beadles.  There are four Minecraft teams that will be competing throughout the season in league battles.  Students are utilizing the newly purchased Minecraft Education licenses which promote creativity, collaboration and problem solving in an immersive digital environment.  Projects will be assigned for students to engineer, build and design Celeste landmarks including town businesses and school sites.  Teams will also be given the opportunity to print their designs with a 3D printer.  Follow the Sunset Pandas, Totem Men, Fire Chickens and Supreme Diamonds as they face weekly challenges on the Celeste Minecraft League Facebook page!
