Bloxels - What is it? 

Picture
Bloxels is a  hands-on platform for kids to build, collaborate, and tell stories through video game creation. Students can use coloured blocks to design their characters and settings to tell  their own amazing stories! The game board is scanned using the free iPad app to make the creation come to life! This engaging classroom tool is transforming learning off the paper and putting it in the hands of students. Imagine designing a scientific process, a historical location, or even a story about yourself! The possibilities are endless!
