Student's gamertag will need to be given prior to playing.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Minecraft

My world is set to Creative and Peaceful mode (Survival mode is available for those who want it). As this is Bedrock edition, it is accessible from your computer, laptop, tablet, phone, Xbox, Wii Switch, and PlayStation. You must already have a Microsoft account prior to the start of class. If no Microsoft account is created, the student will not be able to participate in that class. With a class involving multiple students, my ability to help with technical difficulties will be significantly limited.   

IMPORTANT 
Please keep in mind that gamertags will be seen by other players, but it is Outschool policy not to share them among students and parents. To help this, all gamertags MUST be sent to me privately prior to the start of class. If I have not received it by the start of class, as a last resort, you may privately message me on Zoom. PLEASE don’t put the gamertags in the chat box for everyone to see. 

	To keep this world and its environment as family fun and positive as possible, there are rules that all students must abide by:

-	Things built in this world need to be child appropriate. This includes respecting that what may not be scary to one student, could be to another. My goal is to protect everyone’s best interest.

-	Respectful. At all times, children will exhibit respect to others by how they behave as a character, what they say over zoom, what is written in chat, as well as not destroying other people’s buildings or entering property that is already claimed by a student. 

-	Spawning creatures. Spawning too many animals (etc.) can significantly cause the game to lag and even crash. Therefore, I ask that no more than FIVE animals/mobs be allowed per student. 

-	As unfortunate as it is to have to list, deliberate animal cruelty will have a zero-tolerance policy. If your student is unsure what constitutes that, they should ask first, advising me of their intentions, to avoid a strike. 

-	Notice I do not list specific/detailed things not allowed as I’ve learned that can include a long list that may not always be understood, as well as give bad examples to follow. If a student is ever unsure, they are encouraged to ASK first. This is the same concept taught in life and by practicing it they will become more comfortable exhibiting it.
