In Week 6 of Term 1 our class focussed on how to write great explanations. We wrote about how to survive your first night in Minecraft (the game a lot of us are obsessed with!).
Here is my writing, after I have self-assessed and peer-assessed my work.
As the sun rises on your first day your first goal is to………………..
Gather wood from oak trees because nearly every tool and resources is by wood. When you are finish, collecting wood go on and create some wood planks to make a crafting table. But remember if you created a crafting table and you are still breaking the wood with your hand go ahead and make a wooden axe so it can be easier to break.
Secondly, you have to do: find a place to build your house. But ifs its night time and you are still finding trouble for looking for a place build your house in a mountain but don’t do this, go at the top of the mountain and then dig straight down because one of minecrafts rules are to never dig down because the hole you are making might lead you to a dark dangerous cave. Thats why dig in the side of a mountain. Also here is another idea you can even build your home in a tree, but I like to prefer a jungle tree because they are the tallest trees in minecraft.
Owing to the fact, that you have made your house in a mountain/jungle tree or on a flat surface these are the things you are supposed to have: a door,a roof and some light in your house because……..WAIT! you also have to know this do not build your house near mobs because when you get afraid by the mobs and you think “Wait! I have a bed theres nothing to worry about” you're wrong because if there is mobs and your house is near them you can’t sleep because on your TV/computer it will say “You can’t sleep,mobs are nearby”. So watch out where you build your house.
I would like to say that what you need in your inventory is resources like chests,glass (windows),doors,food,furnace,crafting table so you can complete your mission. How to get food is by animals like cows,sheeps,dogs even by mobs like when you kill a zombie you get their rotten flesh even though it tastes yuck it stills helps you with your health(but it gives you . And how to get glass is by collecting sand and charcoal then put them in a furnace then leave the sand to smelt.
And if its still dark time just stay in your house and don’t let any mobs see you, especially creepers because when they see you and you are very close to them they blow up and it will ruin your home and lots of mobs will come into your home and kill you so watch out. Also I hope this helps you with surviving your first night in minecraft.
