Minecraft

1) Choose a Historical Building (White House, Eiffel Tower, Iolani Palace)

2) Create a Powerpoint Presentation (use Google Drive):

- How large is it? What is it made out of?

- Who designed it? Who built it?

- Where is it? What is the flag? Language, money, etc.?

- Why was it built? What is its significance?

- What kinds of rooms are inside? What kinds of decorations?

- How do you visit it? Entrance fees and hours, hotel, flight.

- What is special about it?Are there other buildings like it in the world? How is they similar? How are they different?

- Cite all Sources! (MLA, using easybib.org)

3) Build it Using Minecraft:

- Sketch out your Building / Brainstorm Colors/Blocks

- Construct the Outer Shell First

- Construct the Inside Rooms (Not all rooms, but sample sections)
