What you’ll build

Build a grand courtroom with a raised judge's bench, a witness stand, a jury box and an evidence table showing your key clues. Then write your closing speech in a book and quill: your claim, your evidence and a killer last line. Read it aloud, cut it down and face one objection from the defence.

Finish line: Your courtroom is built, and your closing speech is written, timed and ready for court.

Bonus challenge: Add a public gallery and a secret door behind the judge's bench. Where does it lead?

You’ll need

  • Stone bricks
  • Dark wood
  • Stairs for seats
  • Banners
  • Item frames
  • A book and quill

You choose

  • My court's name and banner design
  • The judge (a villager, a statue or a family member)
  • My 3 strongest pieces of evidence

Stuck?

  • Stairs make great seats. Place them facing the judge's bench so the jury looks the right way.
  • Speech running long? Cut anything that doesn't prove your case. Aim for under two minutes.
  • Keep the book and quill unsigned until the speech is final, so you can still edit it.
