Schools are using Minecraft!

Kiwi Kids - Minecraft Being Used in Schools

Article Summary:

Over 200 schools in United Kingdom use Minecraft for education. Minecraft is a game that has no round objects and you have to survive in a world where anyone can join in. The article says that it helps children who doesn't like using books. Teachers say Minecraft helps people with their reading and writing.

My opinion on this article:

I don’t think Minecraft should be used in schools because it won’t help the people that don’t like using books. Sometimes, using a netbook / chromebook / laptop / computer can distract the children because there are many advertisements and games that pop up which could distract from their work. Another reason why kids should not play Minecraft in their schools is because the blocks in the game are not real and so they may cause confusion with reality. Once, my brother played Minecraft and my dad said that it will mess with his head.
