Best things to craft in Minecraft Education Edition

5) Bleach


Bleach is one of the many chemical compounds players can make in Minecraft Education Edition. To create bleach, players will need a lab table. Place three water and three sodium hypochlorites to make bleach in Minecraft. Sodium hypochlorite is created by combining sodium, chlorine, and oxygen.

In Minecraft Education Edition, players can use bleach instead of white dye. Bleach can turn wool, beds, banners, and carpets of any color into white.


4) Glow stick

The glow stick is the closest players can get to a lightsaber in Minecraft. Players can craft a glow stick by combining seven polyethylene, one hydrogen peroxide, and a dye.

Players can shake glow sticks to make them glow. Sadly, this item is just for aesthetic purposes as glow sticks do not produce any light. Glow sticks stop glowing after running out of durability points,



3) Medicines

In Minecraft Education Edition, players can craft four types of medicine: antidote, elixir, eye drops, and tonic. Medicines are the opposite of potions as they remove status effects instead of applying them.

Medicines are created in a brewing stand by adding specific chemicals to awkward potions. Here are the recipes for four medicines and their effects:

  • Add silver to make antidote. It cures poison.

  • Add cobalt to make elixir. It cures weakness.

  • Add calcium to make eye drops. It cures blindness.

  • Add bismuth to make tonic. It cures nausea.

2) Sparkler

Players can enjoy sparklers in Minecraft Education Edition. To craft sparkers, players need chloride salt, magnesium, and sticks. Sparkler's color depends on the type of chloride salt used for making it.

  • Calcium chloride: Orange

  • Cerium chloride: Blue

  • Mercuric chloride: Red

  • Potassium chloride: Purple

  • Tungsten chloride: Green

1) Balloons


Since helium gas is available in Minecraft Education Edition, players can craft balloons. To make one balloon, players need six latex, one lead, one helium, and a dye.Players can attach balloons to mobs and make them fly away. Likewise, balloons can also be tied to fences, after which they float in one place.

Minecraft Education Edition provides over 100 elements and compounds. Students can use them to create many unique items and learn about chemistry.

There are two different recipes that use latex, but they're both for balloons. The first recipe is:

  • Latex (6)

  • Matching dye (1)

  • Helium (1)

  • Lead (1)


The second recipe is for a white, brown, blue or black balloon:

  • Latex (6)

  • Lapis Lazuli, Cocoa Beans, Bonemeal or Ink Sac (1) for color

  • Helium (1)

  • Lead (1)

Balloons will float upward due to the helium inside. This means that if something is attached to it that is not stationary, it can float away. Mobs attached to leads will float away, so it's best to put balloons on fence posts.


How to use Compound Creator with Chemistry in Minecraft.

We are going to be building scientific research stations in Minecraft. Research stations are small habitats where humans can live in inhospitable climates to study their surroundings. Here are some ideas for possible research stations:

  1. Underwater research station

  2. Arctic research station

  3. Rainforest research station

  4. Volcano research station

  5. Space station

Here are some images for inspiration:

Work in groups of 3, research ancient Greek myths to find monsters that you want to create.

Moder Homes
