I teach online and am thinking of doing a Gimkit club. Any ideas? The kids are 4th-8th grades. I figure i could do the tutorial with the kids. Any other ideas?

Hello, there! Welcome to the forums!
I’m afraid this post isn’t related to Gimkit Creative, where we discuss map ideas and ask for help related to creating your maps.
If you are new, please read the forum-beginners and forum-tips.
By the way, if someone says this is off topic, it is, because it is unrelated to Gimkit Creative.
Thanks for your cooperation!
P.S., It is great that you are considering teaching young pupils!
Wait—is this considered off-topic? I’m confused…

It would be amazing if you do teach younger kids how to do GKC
Sense then they could make games their friends/everyone can play and have fun in
(Im sad I saw this, and I cant do it sense im to old, and learning new stuff is hard)

hello there!
as you can tell my name is blackfox
but call me fox for short
so generally 4rth to 8th grade students
want something fun right?
but we still want them to learn something so what I’m thinking here
is class projects to engage in teamwork and activity
now because of the limits on players in a single game you may have to pay for a subscription
for a good bit of students to join maybe host a second tab for them to compete against each other in a map building contest if you need a mass subscription email Hello@gimkit.com
and maybe encourage some interesting concepts for them to try and figure out for a challenge
but keep in mind if your students plan to use this forum
they must be 13 or above it’s an unspoken rule here I think
forgive me for the grammarless paragraph but have a good day! meow! :3

Teach them to make a game and stick with it! I’ve seen many unfinished maps…
Teach them to make better names. “Skibidi Sigma Male Only Up” will not cut it, mainly because many people look for quality games, and the game depends on the name.
In general, teach them to make quality games. Gimkit is being flooded with low-quality games, and it really annoys some people.
Teach them using the guides we have made here! Some good ones:
or just look into the Community Made Guides category. Don’t mind the “call this number” or advertising topics; sometimes this place is cluttered with scam bots from India.

hello maybe I can help I am a ninth grader who has been thinking about ramdon stuff my idea for you is have a daily game that can teach history incorporate it in your stuff as a free learning experiment to get started Start with a easy game like snow brawl but add a challenge you can make it a club by using Gmail to spread the word with the students have it based easy but remember this if you doing the tutorial have them all there this is ofcourse a Gimkit Creative thing and you can teach them a little about making their own games the easiest thing to do for your club is guide everyone on the basics and for fun add compeption so at the end of the year you see who makes the best map and maybe have like chick-fil-a give cards to the top three as a ninth grader with friends of many online students me and my friends all wrote into this I hope our friendly advice can help further you’re goals as for me if you want more info you should contact me through Gmail just type in Cvefy you should be able to find it

try to teach them that complexity isn’t always a bad thing, introducing them to a trigger loop will help with that mindset, then try to make them build a big game using all the information they learned, that be a top-down or platformer map. (I wish there was a Gimkit club in my school, best I have is coding Club lol)
