自閉症 Minecraft ソーシャル クラブ: 一緒に作って楽しみましょう! (Java)

Please note that this is the PC or computer ONLY version of Minecraft, meaning your learner will NOT be able to participate if they are using the "Bedrock" (or console/pc) version of Minecraft. If you are not sure which version your learner is using, Open Minecraft and it will tell you at the top.

In this learner-directed, ongoing class we will start each week by joining a private server that is only for enrolled learners so we all have a safe and secure format to play on. Afterward, we will work and improve our social skills by asking for help when needed, working as a team, and using our communication skills (I will provide prompting and help guide students with participation, when needed).

When playing the Minecraft game, students learn creativity, problem solving, self-direction, and collaboration. Students will also practice math skills (trading items and their cost), vocabulary, strategy, and reading skills (reading item names and directions). During gameplay we will practice back and forth communication skills, how to stay positive when things don't go our way, and teamwork.

Week of 1: During this week we will build a shelter to survive the night
Week of 2: During this week we will work on getting each other betting equipment and armor
Week of 3: During this week we will work on making a stable food source
Week of 4: During this week we will work on upgrading our houses and any other touch-ups that might be needed. 

Disclaimer: The weekly summary can change as this is a learner-directed class so the topics change depending on what is happening in-game, whether that be updates to the game or actual gameplay. 


I love playing Minecraft and have been playing it for 10 years! I will use the knowledge I have learned from gameplay when teaching the class. Please note that the Java edition of Minecraft must be downloaded in order to join the private server for the classroom.  The ID for the private server will be posted in the classroom prior to start of class.

This class is open to all students with all levels of abilities but is taught with accommodations in mind for those students who need extra support with learning.
