In this class, ACNH players will visit my island and search for furniture, resources, DIY recipes, housewares, flowers, fruit, and clothing items. These items are dropped randomly all over my island and whatever is on the ground, the students may take. Additionally, my island grows all hybrid flowers, including gold roses. Once friends on the island, the students may dig up my flowers, shake my trees for fruit and dig up any fossils they find. . For this class, students will travel to my island using the dodo code provided prior to class. I will send out the code 10 minutes prior to class to allow students to get settled on the island before class starts. If the class is full, the students will be split into 2 groups and each group will visit a different treasure island. This enables students to come and go on the islands with less of a “bottleneck.” After all students have entered the islands, they may come and go between both islands and their own island. This will be a fun class designed to provide students a stress-free, safe environment to encourage socialization among peers who enjoy the same game. To participate, students must have the Animal Crossing: New Horizons video game, know how to use a dodo code (or have an adult nearby to assist, if needed) as well as have a Nintendo online subscription.

Teacher expertise and credentials
As a facilitator of several popular video game groups, I have enjoyed watching friendships blossom among the like-minded players. Some gamers are attracted to playing video games because they lack a real connection with most of their peers and the pandemic has been particularly isolating to these kids without connections. Other kids enjoy playing and talking about their favorite games to anyone with ears. Like my own son, kids who play video games often disconnect from the world around them. I have found that uniting kids with similar video game interests builds confidence and valuable social skills while making meaningful connections with the world around them.
