Minecraft is one of the most popular games that can be found on almost every single gaming system. It is a sandbox game that allows players to create what they can imagine. This game came out in 2009 and has continued to evolve and make gameplay better and better. The game draws in players from all age range groups, but kids love playing it. It allows them the freedom to build anything their heart desires and gives them fun gameplay both alone and with friends. The game starts with the player spawning into the world and then you have to build a shelter and not get attacked by monsters every night, and then end it by fighting a dragon! The gameplay in this game is never-ending. This class is designed to help new players learn how to survive from the very beginning of the game. It can be overwhelming for new players to learn everything that is available in the game because there are so many new things added every year! Students will be encouraged to build their own homes and help with farming, mining, fishing, making potions, ranching, battling monsters and so much more! First I will teach learners how to work the controls on Java if needed. Playing with a keyboard and mouse is much different than playing on a console. Learners will learn how to survive with some help from me. I want learners to become confident with themselves and if they are not ready to fight monsters, then I will not require them to do so. Each class will be a new world, as this class is a one time only, so we will start from scratch every class. I can help them learn the motions on the keyboard, or we can learn how to set up for the very first night of survival. This class makes a great trial class for learners, and then they can transfer to my group classes if they enjoy Minecraft with me. Learners will learn how to fight monsters (when they are ready), plant farms, build houses, make potions, create armor and tools, dig out ores, and much more, if time permits. They are encouraged to keep playing at home when they are allowed and create their own world. On-going private lessons are available. Please message me to discuss a good time, and pricing. I do not own the rights to this game, learners are required to own the game and play it on their own computers. I rarely share my screen during class. This class is designed only as a stepping stone to help kids learn the game. ********************************* LATE/MISSED CLASS POLICY All courses will begin on time as long as one learner is in the classroom. If no students are in the classroom at the assigned class time, the teacher will leave a message on the discussion board and exit after 10 minutes. No refunds for missed classes per Outschool's policy. ********************************* SCHEDULE REQUESTS/PRIVATE LESSONS I can respond directly to schedule requests! I check my requests daily and I will accommodate as many as I can! I also will accommodate the desire for private lessons, please message me about times and fees. ********************************* SIBLINGS: If you have more than one learner enrolled in the class, each learner that wants to participate must be enrolled to be fair to other students participating. Enrolled siblings are always welcome to share a screen during class. ********************************* REFUNDS & TRANSFERS: Per Outschool's limited refund policy: "Full refund within 24 hours of purchase or up to a week in advance of the class.", missed appointments do not qualify for a refund. Ongoing classes: For On-Going Private classes: If a student is late to class I will wait the required 10 minutes, unless contacted before class stating the student will be late. *Refund/Transfer Policy* Per Outschool policy, there are no refunds or credits for missed classes. I will be glad to transfer your learner to another section if requested but require a minimum 24 hours' notice. This timing is necessary to fill the spot you are vacating. If I transfer you on short notice, I may not be able to fill your original spot, which means you are taking up two spots but only paying for one.

Beyond animals, I offer a diverse array of subjects including Minecraft, Pokémon Go, Lego adventures, reading enrichment, and more—all designed to ignite imaginations and foster a love for learning. Join me for interactive lessons filled with exploration, creativity, and, most importantly, fun!
