A website that: tracks player data, handles classroom management, tons of tools like seating charts, personal student notebooks, automated features like auto magic badges, card generators with special effects, game show buzzers, boss battles, team, guilds...it is meant to be the one stop shop for all things classroom management with gamification built in! If you want to take a peak, here is the link! If you want to know when it is ready please feel free to drop your email in the release notiication. I'd love to know your initial thoughts when you poke around! Thanks all!! https://www.tabletopteachers.com

My beginning
Hi everyone, I'm new to the site. I attended Scott's session at our teacher's convention and instantly became hooked. I currently teach grade 4. I have become so excited about gamification that I've started planning a unit with it, and I have had so much fun with the planning process. This is making me enjoy teaching again. Both my class and I are excited to try it out, as I gave them a teaser.

My trappers start with leather armour, a musket, 5 bullets and a knife. Voyagers get a bow with 5 arrows and a knife. Settlers get fists, First Nations get a bow, 10 arrows, wooden armour, plant guide. Missionaries get a weekly heal card, 3 holy water and 3 word of god cards. Soldiers get metal armour, 1 gun, 10 bullets and a knife. They they have chances to get other cards.

@Jody Looy yes I am. I'm doing all core gamified this year. I also have new cards I plan on introducing after a time too.

Student Participation
Does anyone have issues with students of various religious backgrounds and not being able to/wanting to participate? If so, how is this handled?

If its a matter of not wanting to, I tell kids its not an option, like when we do any activity. They might start to gain interest when the whole class is doing it and talking about it. As for religion, I could see them obviously not wanting to be a religious character. I would talk it out with the student and parents, as it is just a game. I opted to call my potions elixirs, as that was an actual term used; tonics could work too. You can change the names of items to lessen the magic element. I'm in a Catholic school, so the missionaries use blessed objects, not magic. Indigenous people use items blessed by the creator, as this goes with Alberta's indigenous teaching. You could have them create a character that they would be comfortable with for that year as well.

@Jody Looy I've honestly never had to think about that but thats a good point. Even when I was in the public district I never taught someone who was Jehovah Witness so it wasnt even in my thought process.

Universal Resource Sharing 🫴🏻📃
Hi everyone! So with the group continuing to ramp up and the discussions beginning to build - which I am so proud of - it was brought to my attention we should open up a resource sharing page! So here it is! If you've got some things you've created, cards, quests, theme tips, decoration ideas, etc...let's share them all here! I'll continue to add mine into the Loot Chest but would love to see what everyone is creating! Ready...set...share!

I also have to share my disease cards. Just like in the early days of Canada, there is the chance of disease. These are random chance cards.

The best low levels I have found are vocabulary and creating posters with information are good tasks. In my harder levels I've been trying to work in presentations and research to make it more challenging.
