Video games, like FNAF,  have become a full-blown passion for many of our children.  This is the case for my own twins, who are both avid FNAF devotees!  As an educator, I will be honest, I worried at first about all the time they spent playing these video games.  I worried, too, about this laser-thin interest it seemed they had developed.  Yet, as I delved into a study of this game, I realized how incredibly creative the world of Five Nights at Freddy's truly was.  And then, that very same educator in me, saw a golden opportunity. I encouraged my twins to articulate their passion for this game through descriptive language and words.  I gave them positive feedback as they shared with me their knowledge and passion about this game they so loved.  They began to tell me all about their favorite animatronics, their favorite FNAF games along with the game theory and lore they so loved to discuss with sparkles in their eyes.  This led to the birth of this social group! During this social group, your own FNAF fan will spend time learning the very real art of conversation as each one takes turns telling others about their favourite aspects of FNAF. We will also discuss the fanverse including fan games, FNAF songs and and beloved Youtubers like Dawko.   

On my end, I will listen attentively and ask each student personalized questions designed to elicit clearer and more detailed descriptions of the game they so love.  Interaction between the students themselves will be strongly encouraged. Indeed, students will take turns developing key social skills such as listening to others attentively, and building upon conversations with respect and encouragement.  

All of my classes are inclusive for ALL children. As such, they are ESL, neurodivergent and autism friendly.
