Although I and many other teachers have Minecraft classes where the main goal is to just have fun playing Minecraft (because it's an awesome game to play,) this Minecraft class/camp is designed TEACH beginners how to play. I will teach new students the first steps to take when starting with nothing! It can be very frustrating for a student to try to survive in normal mode with mobs killing them constantly. That is why I created this class. Although it is a survival realm, the realm will be set to easy mode so the students can learn the steps they must take to survive in more advanced worlds. They will quickly be ready to play in normal mode with mobs. Each student will be taught what the most important thing is for each particular class to survive without dying. They will think about short-term survival and what is the most beneficial for long-term survival. Students will have fun surviving and building with other students who love Minecraft as much as they do in this class! Day 1: Learn what the most important things to mine, and the most important things to start crafting. Also building a basic structure. Day 2: Continue learning what to craft and how to get food. Also what is the most important things to hunt for. Day 3: Where to find important blocks when mining. And how to stay safe when mining. Day 4: Set up for long term survival. Depending on the students maybe even switching to normal mode for part of the class! The server will be private and secure. This is a Minecraft Bedrock Edition class, also known as Microsoft 10 or Pocket Edition. This is a Bedrock Adition Minecraft class. I will take time to speak with each student and monitor them to help them with anything they need. The student is welcome as long as they follow a few simple rules. #1 NO GRIEFING. No adding or taking away from anyone else's build unless asked by the other student. PvP only with other students that agree to PvP with you, if they ask you to stop you must stop. If the student continues this behavior they will be excused from the realm for a short time and their parents will be told. Please make sure you have a Microsoft account and have the parental controls set so that the student will be able to have friends and join realms. Also, make sure you have Minecraft Bedrock downloaded and attached to a Microsoft account. If these things are not done, you will not be able to join my realm. Once you sign up, please send a friend request to BouncyBasher8. When the class starts I will send a realm invite. When the class ends I will remove each student from the realm until the beginning of the next class as per Outschool policy. I am so happy to invite all iPad, iPhone, Nintendo Switch players, and others to this class! So let's have fun together. I can't wait to meet you all!

Share it with the teacher, and maybe that's what we will be doing in the next ongoing class.

Parental Guidance
Before entering class each student should have Minecraft (Bedrock Edition) downloaded. It needs to be signed into a Microsoft account with a gamer tag (name). The settings need to allow the students to join friends and realms.
This class does not teach how to do this. Make sure you send me the gamer tag. Friend me BouncyBasher8. It is important to have this done before the class starts.

My name is Billy and I have been a professional builder and teacher for 25 years. I have 3 adventurous sons that I have been able to assist in reaching above grade level in all subjects.

We are currently living in our 3rd country and are loving learning about different cultures and people. As a lifelong learner myself, I strongly believe that learning should be fun and we should be able to see how it will apply in our lives, so this is the approach I take in my classroom. I have a bachelor's degree in teaching English online. Please join me for an exciting class that you won't soon forget.
