What's included
Group experience
This is THE place to be if you are a huge Minecraft fan like me! Students will be able to share their builds and swap tips with one another. Get feedback on your creations and learn new tricks from other players. Be inspired by other's designs and take your game to a whole new level. As the group moderator, I will post fun Minecraft stuff several times each week ranging from build challenges to Minecraft book recommendations to news about the latest updates. I will also encourage and supervise conversations in the group so everything stays friendly, fun and safe. If you have questions or want to share your Minecraft knowledge with others, I would love to have you join us! Make some new friends who share your interest in Minecraft! All versions and devices for Minecraft are welcome. Whether you are more into creative or survival, I can't wait to see you in My Minecraft Hangout.

Guidelines
Welcome to our Group! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 3 rules we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful.
Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included.
Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here
Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs.
Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private.
Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated.
Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered.
Not an official Minecraft product. Not approved or associated with Mojang.

Bachelor's Degree from Kenyon College
I have taught over 4,500 students on Outschool and countless others outside of the platform. I have a passion for building and teaching with Minecraft, and I love to share that with my students! I also really enjoy Minecraft myself. Creepers are my favorite, and I even built a life size one out of cardboard boxes!
