D&D Club Information
If you have never played or heard of D&D before, it is all about storytelling; a group of people will get together to tell a story, create their own fantasy character that could be anyone and anything, go on a quest/adventure with whatever goal the Dungeon Master (the person who leads the story like a narrator) has for the group, and ultimately have a ton of fun doing it!
Since it is all about group storytelling, and the story is created on the fly by everyone involved, there would be plenty of social opportunities as well to keep kids interested and social during remote learning. The character they create and use would need a backstory, a description, and plenty of other general information, so students would need to do some research, read through some reference manuals and materials that I have and would provide to them, and write their character into existence! Reading and writing would be everywhere in the game as students continue to create and design their character and the story itself.
Each session would be an hour or two, and we would meet once a week on the day that works best for the students who sign up for D&D Club. If you have any questions, please email me at
[email protected]!
I will hold an informational meeting Friday, January 8th, in my office hour from 2:30-3:30. Students can sign in to their class's Google Meet where I will be live to answer any questions you have. Sign-up goes until Wednesday, January 13th, with the first session of Character Creation planned for office hour on Friday, January 15th.
Thanks!
