The 12 lessons in digital format are available for download until June 30th.
They also offer tours of the International Space Station and the inside of a human eye, which "can be played on your own, or with your parents or other your friends".
The worlds offer creative writing and puzzles as well as build challenges.
Other lessons include:
Puzzle games to teach students about how code is written and to think like programmers
A visit to the most significant landmarks in Washington D.C including the White House, the Pentagon and the Lincoln Memorial
A game about making power from other energy sources such as nucleus and wind.
"Educators around the world are doing their best to provide digital lessons for the half a billion kids who are out of school because of the Covid-19 pandemic, Minecraft owner Microsoft said in a blog.
"This isn't an easy task and we want to play our part in helping help keep young minds sharp and stimulated."

On its website, the site informed its visitors: "We are doing everything we can to ensure that the site is stable, and we are adding servers."
