I offer the best prices, for the longest sessions, in the most developed world you will find on Outschool. No other Dungeon Masters will give your child a three-hour session, which is the session length typically found in DnD campaigns.  

Students need the following for this class:

	- A working microphone.
	- A Roll20 account (Free to set up and use).
	- A premade character. This will allow for maximum playtime while respecting the time of the other players.  I encourage you to sign up and message me with your learners character so I can make sure it is fine for the party and campaign. 

The following is optional but recommended:
	- A camera.
	- A DnDBeyond account (Free as well). 

The student's D&D characters may encounter the following throughout their adventures:
	- Violence
	- Death
	- Fire
	- Illness
	- Spiders
	- Loads of fun

The following behavior is discouraged or prohibited.
	- Player versus player combat.
	- Metagaming. This includes googling monster statistics or reading adventures ahead of time. While it may be ok to have this knowledge, don't let it guide your character's actions. Your adventurer may not know that trolls can regenerate! 
	- Telling others what to do. Suggest, don't tell. D&D is a team game. 
	- Rules lawyering. The DM sometimes needs to bend or even break rules in service of the story or game balance. This is typical in D&D.
	- Cheating. Cheating is not permitted. Be honest with your rolls and accept the consequences of your actions.  

Abusive or disrespectful behavior towards other players or the Dungeon Master will not be tolerated. 

Have fun. Show up on time. Don't be mean. Share space.

Each section (day of the week) is a separate campaign, with different players.

Learning Goals

Basic mathematics.
Cooperation and problem solving.
Listening and sharing space.
Choice and consequence.
Heroism and confidence.
Character writing and worldbuilding.

Other Details

Learning Needs

Parental Guidance

The adventure may call for parental guidance and/or the adventure may contain one or more of the following: fantasy violence, infrequent coarse language, or some suggestive dialogue. Players may encounter fire and spiders.
Pre-Requisites
Players should arrive with a character already made, so as to maximize playtime. Players should have their character made in DnDBeyond. DnDBeyond is free to use. Players need to have Roll20 account. This is free to make.
