Class Experience

If you have never played DnD before, this camp is for you. The learners will get to experience their first campaign ever. Learners will need to have a level 1 character ready to play for this class. 

Tabletop role-playing games is an amazing hobby. Dungeons and Dragons is the single biggest game and most popular one, by far. This class provides an introduction to adventuring in DnD. 

Role-playing games can be a gateway to so many amazing creative pursuits:
* Art - drawing ones characters.
* Creative writing - designing the backstory for the character.
* Math - using the rules often requires math skills
* History - learning about the history of the imaginary world often sparks an interest in real world history as well.
* Geography - players have to use maps during game-play and that can spark an interest for how geography matters in real life.
* Social studies - when we play, we create fictional societies, and understanding how a society functions is important to breathing life into fictional societies
* Mythology - a lot of the monsters and creatures of DnD are inspired by real life mythology.
* Team-work and problem-solving- Table-top roleplaying requires players to work together to create a story. Even if the characters in the game might not always get along, the players around the table always should and have to work out their differences so everyone can enjoy together.

I will introduce the learners to all these aspects of tabletop role-playing in this class.
