Block 04: Gold Ore

  In the darkness of a cavern you see a glint of light like a reflection.  It's gold ore!  Gold ore is the fourth block in the creative inventory.
  Gold ore only spawns in the layers from 0-32. Smelting it gives you one gold ingot.  With the ingots you can make armor and tools.  You can only mine gold ore with a iron or diamond which drops one gold ore. It is found in veins of 2-10.  Gold tools work and wear out faster then every other tool.
  Gold is the only thing that can't be mined by itself so it is not very useful.  Gold might seem valuable but it isn't really.  Gold is not very useful because you can't make much of anything with it.

Redstone

Redstone is usually found at bedrock level and diamond level.  Redstone circuts are useful for lighting redstone lights.  Redstone lights can be used to light caverns, houses, and pathways.  Redstone can also blow up dirt, ores, stone, and houses by putting a block of tnt touching the redstone, and leaving a trail of redstone. Next light it with a redstone torch and watch it blow up!

Block 03: Diamond Ore

  In the deepest depths of the earth....  Surrounded by lava pools is a stone studded with light blue gems.  It's diamond ore!  Diamond ore is the third block in the creative inventory.
Diamond D 28x.jpg  Diamond ore when mined with a iron or diamond pick yields one diamond.  You can only find diamond ore in the lowest 16 layers of the earth.  You can only obtain diamond ore with a silk touch pickax.  Diamond ore is found the most between layers 12 and 5 as shown in the picture.  Diamond spawns in veins of 1-10. Diamond ore can be smelted to make diamonds.
  Overall diamond ore is a very useful block in minecraft.  It's the rarest of all blocks.  So when you see diamond ore go for it!

DIAMOND!!!!!

Diamond is normally found at  15 and to bedrock and it is found by lava. 
Diamond is used for making strong amour and swords and pickaxes. Diamond ore can  be mined with a iron  pick-axe or diamond pick-axe. Diamond is also used for enchantment table and jukeboxs to.It is raw material which means it is not made into any thing.

Block 01: Cobblestone

 You walk into a cavern and you see stone...  You mine some out and you get cobblestone!  Cobblestone is the first block in the creative inventory.
  The only natural cobble is found in villages, dungeons, strongholds, and when flowing lava meets flowing water.  This is a building material used for making castles, roads, and watchtowers.  It is used to craft a variety of items. These are the items: furnaces, cobblestone slabs, stone stairs, stone tools, levers, pistons, brewing stands,  and dispensers.  Cobblestone can be smelted back into stone. The original logo of Minecraft on the website was made out of cobblestone.  
  Cobblestone is a very useful block. It can make many things. It is very basic as you only need to mine stone with at least a wooden pick to get it.  If you find a cavern go mine out some cobblestone!

bow and arrow

The bow can shoot very far if you hold right click and then you release right click and its likely that  you won-t find it. The bow is wore out very slowly.It takes about 2 to 3 shots to kill a mob.
The bow and arrow can not break a block.
It can get stuck in any block.

I like Minecraft because you can build and decorate  
and tame wolfs and ocelots. I like taming wolfs and  ocelots because they follow you around, but it can get annoying. I like building houses because it's fun,  but it can hard. I like decorating because it makes whatever I'm decorating more beautiful. That's what I like about Minecraft.

wooden gate

The wooden gate is one block tall but you can-t jump over it.   The wooden gate is used for pining sheep, cows, and pigs.  you can make a awesome house out of wooden gate because you see mobs and block that you need. The wooden gate is hard to break with a pickaxe and is eazy to break with a axe.  You can make a wall a door and so many other stuff!



Block 02: Stone

  You walk into a cavern....  What's all around you? Stone!!!!  Stone is today's topic! Stone is the second block found in the creative inventory.
  Stone is the second most common block around. Air is the first.  When mined with a pick-axe stone will drop cobblestone. Cobblestone can be put in a furnace and cooked to make stone.  Using a silk touch (enchantment) pick-axe on stone will make it drop stone.  It can be used to make buttons, pressure plates, stone slabs, and stone bricks. Stone is a useful material.
   Stone is good for beauty, to make red-stone gadgets, and is strong against creeper blasts. That is why many people use it for buildings.  So the next time you walk in to a cavern, don't complain.  There are many uses to this simple element.

PROTECTION!!!!!

  Protection comes in many sizes, big and small. Wolves, ocelots, and the golems are the protection. This protection is needed against the darkness of night!  Skeletons, creepers, zombies, and spiders will try to kill you.
  First of all you need to tame ocelots with raw fish and wolves with bones. Then they will follow you around and help you fight bad mobs. A snow golem is built with two snow blocks. It throws snowballs at the enemy.    
Finally an iron golem is made with four iron blocks and a pumpkin. It is sometimes found in a villages.  It hits bad mobs doing more damage than a snowball.
  That is your protection. I know it doesn't sound good but it works. Creepers don' stand a chance against these guns!
I  like making  houses  in  Minecraft, coloring sheep    
with  dyes  and killing sheep too. My favorite blocks(There are other things too.) are, lapiz lazuli, bedrock, obsidian, nether brick  fence, vines and shears. I don't like mining  but my brothers do. I don't like the nether either. But I do like  villages.

Frostcast Hunger Games

  BOOOOM!!!!!!  The cannon signals a death. You look at the chat bar. It shows who's been killed. You're scared you might be next! Frostcast is a server where you can play Hunger Games.
  There are three types of Hunger Games arenas: Island, City, and an arena which is not named.  There are many chests with items scattered around the arenas to help you survive. There are 7 games you can join.  In the games you kill all the other people to win. Usually there is a mad dash to the center because there are chests there like the Cornucopia. Some people just run out of the center so they don't get killed. The survivors at the center go out to try to kill the remaing hiding contestants. The runners try to find chests and food. It ends with one sole survivor.
  This is my favorite server because of no whitelist and Hunger Games because I enjoyed the books and the movie. It even has cannons!  The server ip is  hungergames.frostcast.net 
I  built a house in Minecraft. It has four rooms. It's  kind of  small though, but I like it. Its  floors are  striped with birch wooden planks and bricks.It has a big porch. And I like the like the porch the best. 

Iron Pickaxe

1.The iron pick-axe is sturdier than a stone pick-axe and does break easier than an iron pick-axe.
2.The iron pick-axe can mine everything except obsidian.
3.The iron pick-axe is worn down if you mine gravel.
4.The iron pick-axe is used mostly for mining gold and diamond.
5.You would usually find iron ore deep under ground.
