Yes I have an avatar, and I look awesome!
After the TCEA Convention in Austin, our class has picked up a new tool! I have to say our class is already a dynamic learning environment. My kids and I live every day in "Beta". We are constantly trying new things, tossing the ones that don't work, and adding the good ones to our keeper pile. I found a jewel at the convention!
Classcraft turns your class into a living video game. Each student becomes a character. You are the Game Master. You control points, powers, and random events. It is Class Dojo (which bored me quickly) in overdrive. I was uncertain how long the excitement would last, but I am amazed that my students are still very involved in keeping their clans alive. I will keep you posted on how it all plays out by the end of the year. Be sure to check it out at
Classcraft. There are free, freemium, and premium accounts. I chose the freemium which allows more teacher access. It also gives students an option to spend up to $4.99 on outfits and such. I made a NO PURCHASES OR YOUR CLAN DIES rule. It has worked so far!
