Preparing a feast activity
Step 1: Catch, prepare and cook fish
Create a fishing rod
To catch a fish you will need a fishing rod. Like other tools such as swords or pickaxes, a
fishing rod will only last for a limited time. You can use a fishing rod 65 times before it
breaks. To craft a fishing rod see the Recipes resource.
Catch fish
Working in small groups:
1. Choose an area of water close to the long house village.
2. Select the fishing rod.
3. Right-click while facing a body of water.
4. Once the float has risen to the
water's surface, watch for it to bob
under the water.
5. As soon as it bobs under the
water, right-click again and a fish
should fly out of the water towards
your feet.
This task takes a little patience to get right! Keep trying! There are four types of fish listed in
MinecraftEdu:
raw fish and raw salmon (which can be cooked in a furnace);
clown fish (which cannot be cooked); and
puffer fish (which is poisonous).
Cooked salmon is the most beneficial fish of all of these. It restores three hungry points.
How to cook fish
You will need a furnace to cook the fish. See the recipes resource to learn how to make a
furnace.

Step 2: Farm, prepare and cook meat
Animal enclosure
Work in small groups and decide on a pen design. You may also wish to use this guidance to
build a small animal pen:
1. You will need enough wood to make 16 fences (6 logs (blocks), 24 planks, or 11 sticks).
See the recipes resource for more details about fences.
2. Dig a hole: 5 x 5 and 1 block deep.
3. Place fences all around the edge.
4. Put a block in the middle.
Fences form a barrier that is 1½ blocks high, so that animals can't jump over it.
If you place a block in the middle of the pen, you will be able to stand on it to jump out of
the pen, but the chickens won't. This pen design is easy for you and the chickens to get into
from any direction, but only you can get out.
1. Hold some food out.
2. When they notice the food, they will look at you and follow you.
3. Lead the animals to the enclosure.
Animal breeding
1. To get the animals to breed, you need to feed them.
2. Right-click on an animal while holding some food and hearts will appear above the
animal’s head, and then click on another animal.
Slaughter
The most efficient way to harvest meat from your cows and pigs is just to enter the pen with
a sword and slay most of them. You need to save a few for breeding the next herd.

Cook
Smelting (cooking) raw meat, fish and potatoes will provide you with two to three times the
amount of food points compared to eating those items raw.
Remember! Chicken has a 30 per cent chance of causing food poisoning. Cook all chicken
before eating it.
How to cook meat
You will need coal and a furnace to cook the meat. See the recipes resource for more
information about the furnace.
1. Put coal and meat on the furnace. Once the arrow is full, the meat is cooked.
2. Move the meat to the inventory.
Step 3: Make bread, grow and harvest vegetables
Bread
Bread is one of the easiest staple sources of food in Minecraft.
You make bread by placing 3 pieces of wheat side by side on the crafting table.
In small groups look for the farmed areas growing wheat throughout the Viking village.
Bread restores 3 hunger slots. Bread is also stackable. To make bread, see the recipes
resource.
Wheat and vegetables
If there is time, you may wish to grow your own wheat.
You can forage for carrots and potatoes throughout the Viking long boat village.
Working in small groups plan and build storage silos with chests to store your food items.

Decorate the long house activity
Step 1: Plant flowers and saplings
How to craft a potted sapling:
Find a tree, for example an oak sapling.
You can use your hands to chop down the leaves of a tree but it is better to craft an axe
(see the recipes resource for more information).
Chop the tree leaves until a sapling falls from the tree.
Pick up the sapling before it disappears.
The sapling will then appear in your hotbar or inventory.
Use the sapling with a flower pot to make a potted plant for decoration in the long
house. Or grow trees around the outside of the long house.
Step 2: Decorate the long house
Think about how you might decorate the long house. You may also find this guidance useful:
How to craft a painting in Minecraft in survival mode:
You will need a crafting table. See the recipes resource for more information about
making a crafting table and a picture frame.
You will need 8 sticks and 1 block of wool.
Move the painting to the inventory.
Place the painting in the long house. The image in the painting is randomly generated.

Making clothes activity
Step 1: Craft a leather tunic
Begin by making leather:
1. You can add leather to your inventory in survival mode by killing a cow or a horse. You
will find cows and horses wandering around the Viking village.
2. Once you find a cow or horse, you need to attack it. When you attack it will turn pink as
it becomes damaged. Continue to chase and attack the animal. Once you have killed it, it
will drop leather.
3. Pick up the leather to add it to your inventory. To make a leather tunic, see the recipes
resource.
To put the tunic on, from the inventory move the tunic to
the second-left box beside your character.
You will see your character's appearance change. They are
now wearing the tunic.
Research other clothes and household items the Vikings might have crafted, for example:
Leather boots
Leather trousers
Leather cap
Wool (while it’s not possible to create wool clothes in MinecraftEdu, it is possible to
make and dye wool: see the recipes resource for more information)
Dying wool
