- We will focus more on multiplayer games where the children can interactively play inside each other’s Minecraft worlds.
- Advanced data structures: using object Variables, Lists and Dictionaries
- Use of Logic, and nested logic statements to make in-game decisions.
- Advanced loops: using For loops and While loops embedded with logic
- Using Functions to create reusable and clean code.
- Combining Command blocks and Code to create highly interactive games
- We will explore basic JavaScript and Python coding techniques. This is the next step up from block-based coding and opens up a whole new world of ‘real-life’ coding opportunities.
