[oTheGriMReaPeR]

@TehCrafter

Oh how silly of you, you made the assumption I had children (Poor assumption) then quickly realized your mistake and deleted your comment. Bravo sir.

mmhmm.

Ignorant people like you support this man.

[RacingMaster1000]

MinecraftTeachr, Come to england, Loads of people love Minecraft in my school :D

[sceenesisters]

Okay many people think teaching kids at school Minecraft is useless, but it can actually be the opposite. Say you were a social studies teacher that's teaching about France, you could build Paris to show children what it looks like without pictures, or you could make them do it as a school project. Minecraft can be productive if you use it in school. In fact, I'm thinking of building a small part of Afghanistan for my school to show what environment people in Afghanistan have to live in.

[Momai777]

What is the IP?

[Momai777]

I wanna play this server!

[daviefindlay96]

i was just waiting for a kid saying SHUT THE FUCK UP AND STOP TREATING US LIKE NEWBZ!!!!! xD

[Pixelation709]

@Nyanwuby I can only hope that you're not serious.

[Nyanwuby]

Server

[Nyanwuby]

Hey teacher dude can i showsome basics and can i join yourser

[briancabral100]

[ilikrandomness]

nobody will make it to the end in 1.4

[Kidk91]

Thumbs up if you want to have this class at your school!

[LAMATANKproductions]

@Kidk91 im trying to convince my head teacher to get it, here is the vid im going to show him. search LAMATANKproductions then minecraft in school

[realantihater]

its lagging

[2kkivrak]

Next try teaching them the way water and lava defies physics. :D

[bowzoid]

Next lesson: advanced griefing

[TheZminecraft]

call of duty

[TheZminecraft]

im 11 and i beat caal of duty black ops

[TheCdestre]

@TheZminecraft You can beat "caal of duty black ops" but you can't spell "call" Interesting.

[justin25211]

@oTheGriMReaPeR Minecraft is creative, it can teach you a lot about life lessons you just have to find them out and teach them to your children. I will actually teach my children how to play games.

[oTheGriMReaPeR]

@justin25211 Good luck finding them good Sir and/or Madam.

As for your children...

Hurr Durrrrrrr

[Havk995]

@justin25211 :D my little brother is only 3 and he allready knows how to kill people in Call of duty

[TheCheezman11]

I understand what you are doing. I know how people are saying that this isn't productive, but we must remember that these children are not in high school... They are in second grade. This is not trying to teach them math and whatnot. It is trying to teach them to work together and be polite. With the proper Redstone engineering he could make a pretty decent puzzle too. Well done Joel. You have my full support and I hope your efforts succeed!

[TheAdrixzProductions]

What are theese people even trying to teach? Following instructions? Im confused!

[naruto0123456780]

@KohNahMee No, math is not useless, because you wont know how to use a calculator, unless you know what each sign, symbol, and equation work. And there are lots of equations that cant be done on a calculator.

And saying that English is useless... Thats about the most illogical thing I have ever heard.

[MrKirbyXIII]

@pretzelking85 It's LAN. Aka, only those computers are wired to it manually. If you want a MinecraftTeachr server, go to the site. No, you won't be using the same map as classes, but it is the teacher's server.

[dinoderp]

shh shh excuse me

...so

[mistakendesert]

this is the seacret training for machinima relm

[GoldenBlockGaming]

That's a nice classssss you have there.

But that's a really cool idea.

[SuperMinecraftHondra]

In a few days they're either gunna add mods 2 their game or make some lol

[TheDrummerboy315]

(sigh) the addiction starts early..... 

[artuno1207]

Just watch. In two weeks these kids will be so pro, that they will be figuring out how to make clocks using redstone, or even how to break the game itself.

[DarkFox312]

@artuno1207 Or how to make a computer (my friend made one) with redstone. A computer within a computer, computerception...

[BLGxSNIPEZx]

Hey, don't show them the mobs lol

[WeAreSpuddieCraft]

next lesson is endermen



[oONatetheGreatOo]

future griefers FTW



[LOLfacemanEpic1]

Hey Minecraft Teachr Can You Make A World Full Of Statue's For The Kids And They Can live In Themselves

[DarkerRai]

Good thing he wasn't trying to explain 1.8. That would have been HARD.

[Comosiem]

@DarkerRai

How to do a slime farm, HOLY FUCK

hahahaha

[DarkerRai]

@Comosiem lolol

[GTvsForza]

@DarkerRai Or 1.0.0.

[zonnows]

@DarkerRai Good thing it wasnt 1.1 ....

[FlamingZaramaja]

can you force my teachers to do this? :P

[MrPollo5665]

Put this For Download

[GrandmasterJman05]

Thumbs up if you play minecraft on mac :)

[MinecraftExtraPlayer]

@GrandmasterJman05 hell ya :D!

[iMaggahFTW]

that kid is so annoying lol he thinks he is a minecraft og

[ubershyguy8]

i wish i had teacher magic.....and minecraft

[rgryan1000]

thats me i learnd minecraft over 5 days

[stephen33331]

oooooooooooo teacher magic is just being a administrator or a moderator

[MySuperlame]

@stephen33331 XD REALLY?!?! CUZ I DIDNT KNOW!!!!! (sarcasm)

[sonickyle1797]

I wish i had this in Elementary School

[AllYouHearIsSwoosh]

Are you going to teach them about creepers?

[PhantomCyborg]

Hey, I was thinking about asking my computer teacher this year about using minecraft. What I want to know is exactly how do you have minecraft on every computer? Do you have to buy it for each one?

[gfdthetank]

this should be manditory

[McK21279]

I wonder if the kids have permission to the mods, and he just won't tell them the chat button...

[Fizzo1122]

the world is on you'r web sight =D

[Fizzo1122]

you should put that map up for download =D

[lukesvids30]

It must of been a lot of effort setting up the server, buying and reskinning all of the accounts and most of all making the map

[lazyboy1410]

Only if every school does this then people would enjoy school more....

[DarkusRelling]

To get off a fence in an earlier update, you had to jump while moving away from it.

[stupidguy911]

Why put genetics in game

 even=xx/girl

Odd=xy/boy

The amount of x's

[caffie88]

if i had this in second grade i would be a nerd Lol in second grade i was running runescape halo and call of duty xD

[xbxbbxbx]

If I tought minecraft I would include monster fighting

[Slaya49fan]

@xbxbbxbx and play when you have diamond tools and they have wood toolsand they have to fight a ton of creepers if so count me in

[PJATdug]

It'd be more interesting if he just let them learn on their own after he explained the control and swimming.

[iReversed]

Lol looks way too easy

[awsomeististy]

7:20 Someone points a laser pointer at him!

[ITakeYourFood]

Either this teacher is the biggest virgin ever or he's banging the fattest walrus ever. 

[lazarsaurus]

The loud kid is gonna go places. Using basic physics knowledge like a boss.

[DarkThe111]

that would have been funny if he had turned on damage later :)

[VisigothViking]

"...An Obstacle Course!"

*GASP*

Hahahaha.

[MrPureMC]

Nice excuse to play videogames in lessons

[thefigster27]

Do most of your classes have an even gender split? If not are kids disappointed/perturbed if they have to go to a computer of the opposite sex?

[TimeWaave]

Teach them complex redstone circuitry O.o

Now THAT would be impressive!

[hyperventalated]

i never got past the stairs...that aside i wish my teacher was teaching minecraft. thats awesome

[ReinuAntipuesto]

MOOOOOOOREEEEE!!! plzz

[ReinuAntipuesto]

cool teaching through minecraft ..i like it (SUB) all the students will focus on it cuz its a game but not killing games its about living in forest,deserts,etc.. COOL!

[ItsFull]

i wish i could have played videogames in 2nd grade... then again, i don't think legend of zelda or super mario 64 would have been productive towards learning. :)

[CrosEyedPaintballFan]

when they get really good you do customs maps for tests :)

[MrDude308]

paving the path for future gamers

[turbosflamas]

Join server and grief : )

[billykey123]

teacher goes out of class pupil runs up to the host computer and types op username

goes back to comtuter before teacher comes back

/give pupil 46 64 come ere JIMMEY

[lehawk100]

Haha break the door

[Dziubekoo]

wtf 

[miauw62]

If i was in that class right now, i would probably have been using warp.

unless he is using permissions/op.

[DummiesBelow]

my brother is in grade 4 and he is pretty much a expert at minecraft, i showed him these videos and he says he wants to go to this school and kick grade 2 ass.

[EELawsonLPs]

well I went to the wrong grade school.. of course that was before minecraft alpha ever existed



[nonginger]

you should of shown them the f5 technique

[NineTails1133]

lemme guess teacher magic is actually admin commands?

[themorgerath1]

hahahahahaha! lol, "This is an obstacle course"

Children- Heavy Gasp!

[GrafKarpador]

Oh man, imagine those kids growing up some day, watching these videos and being all like "oh my god, my childhood". I know for sure I'd be pretty pleased.

Also, using Minecraft as a teaching basis is a pretty nifty idea, quite interesting to reflect on all the different things you can actually teach kids with a sandbox legoesque game like this; with some little tweaks, MC sure can be really pedagogically valuable. Oh, and kudos for being such a good teacher.

[miauw62]

@GrafKarpador Hmm.

we really need a mod for this!

[Ark559]

What happens when one of the kids discovers flint and steel then sets fire to everything? :P

[Dsmith196]

@Ark559 then they will truly be MINECRAFTERS!!!

[dangerdude363]

@Ark559

then the server is preety much fucked

[NickydaFat]

this is really awsome! Also wat texture Pack Are you using

[MajorNightSlash]

You should contact Notch, or he should contact you

[ste3lwill]

SOUNDS LIKE A REALLY SMART BUNCH OF KIDS

[BjornTheDim]

These movies give me the warm and fuzzies. Who's with me?

[ragnaroksbringer]

@BjornTheDim I am.

[yuumeko]

TEACHER MAGIC!!

[padawon291]

this is so awesome. I WISH I HAD THIS FOR MY SCHOOL

[ZaneZibarable]

This is better than dying to dysentery. i wish we had better games when i was smaller. :(

[hamstasquad11]

You are amazing, I wish i was in Elementary school

[LordWhatsHisName]

this is a class u dont wanna sleep in lolz

[Onwa06]

Thank you for teaching. :)

[Super13soldier]

someone seems like they have no lessons to teach

[theeggman85]

Dream Job.

[progmetalfan1]

No offence but what are you teaching them

[ShadeOnTheUtube]

@progmetalfan1 he's teaching mostly how to play, because the game does not yet have a fullfledged tutorial. :P plus, second graders do not always have the "smarts" to go to minecraft wiki and work things out on their own. this is a great thing he's doing. and a major positive boost to parents views on games.

[blabbi100]

Teacher magic :D

[TheAlphaGamerTV]

I feel Pro at Minecraft seeing this ;)

[helping1art]

what is the texture pack? awsome job btw! :p

[Strichpunkt900]

Awesome Teacher !! :)

my Favourite Part 00:53

[latvianMCG]

how old are these children they sound like this is secound time when they work with pc

[luxitvrdy]

@latvianMCG round 7

[ariex0a]

nice im at 4th grade and once i whas like them in 2nd grade

[luxitvrdy]

@ariex0a good for u man.keep it going

[ariex0a]

get them some dogs they would LOVE it

[Hvidl0g]

i played minecraft for 9 month, i would love my teacher to do that, let me play minecraft in the school

[BusterFiddlewig]

This is so awesome!

[thehorneyhorner]

It must be good to know that when these kids grow up, you will be remembered as their favourite teacher of all time. I think it would be impossible to leave your classes with any thought but that.

[t0xicl0gic]

This is a great idea. I'd like to suggest that you rethink how you present the gender assignments. My daughter very clearly and very early identified as a boy, not a girl, and she would have been VERY uncomfortable with the expectation that she play as a girl. Kids should be allowed to have the choice to play any gender they like.

That said, I HATE that my Minecraft character sounds like a man.

[MinecraftTeachr]

@t0xicl0gic You know it's funny. I almost always announce it differently. I usually say "If you want to appear as a girl, sit at an even number.... etc." But for some reason I didn't in the video. And in practice, the kids are usually much more interested in sitting next to their friends. They usually don't even think about the gender.

[StreetSamuraiXII]

@MinecraftTeachr I like that.

[Thebadcommenter]

@t0xicl0gic This comment bugs me...

[XxXGulottaXxX]

@t0xicl0gic Im sorry I dont know more info on it but there is a easy way to change files and make the sounds like a girl,

[DarkenedYeastExtract]

@t0xicl0gic there was a really early The Shaft episode where Notch said He will add the different gender sounds (I also want language changes so all the stuff can be in dutch or swedish or french)

[Deathkeeperx]

@t0xicl0gic also u can find a female sound file, then u can just replace the sound files.

[jabadahut50]

@t0xicl0gic there is actually a mod that will change the noises to make them feminine. if i can find it again ill give you a link.

[skatobetho]

@t0xicl0gic not all children identify themselves to their biological gender.

[luneth34]

@t0xicl0gic well you can edit the files to add female sounds... but you'll need to do get some/make some sound files in order to do so... either way depending on your daughters age and if she's the artistic type, you should find a world map thats just flat lands (you can find a lot of them around) and a mod that lets you spawn materials (there are quiet a few of them) i found its a fun way to play a game and be artistic

[MinecraftFan12345]

Hello! i would like to know if i could have a version of your map for a demonstration of MC.... it is fine if not. :)

[MinecraftTeachr]

@MinecraftFan12345 Soon! I will have a version available for download soon.

[ZACU0]

Absolutely amazing!!!! Wish i had this when i was a kid XD

[Mahargmonster]

Please tell me you recorded the class adventure as well.  This is amazing, I want to see them make it through your world!

[waz165]

What school is this

[smashbi121]

Could you video more of your gameplay/teaching session, I really like to see those kids mindlessly play and create something in Minecraft. (I'm not a pedo)

I find it amusing watching a group of kids trying to comprehend the world of Minecraft.

:3

[mwmalecky]

"Ok, so here we go."

I actually got a little rush of excitement when you finally said that.

[MALandwehr]

What's your texture pack?

[TeoTheAwesome]

I want the world! :D

[Levitikai]

So how many kids tried to take apart the start zone?

[podthegod]

You're a really good teacher. You bring up things I would expect to be common sense in the kids. Keep up the good work

[FishReaver]

Teaching Powers... Heh Good one.

[smashbi121]

This is so awesome, I wished Notch was born when I was in 2nd grade.

[MrFinnJohnson]

@smashbi121 he didn't make the game when he was born though

[smashbi121]

@MrFinnJohnson I meant "Minecraft". oh well.

[LOLMcAdams]

@smashbi121 He didn't make MineCraft straight out of the womb!

[ragnaroksbringer]

@smashbi121 That wouldn't work right. Actually, that may be about accurate (depending on your age). An accurate wish: "I wish that I was in second grade right now".

Minecraft is fun enough when I'm older, but if EVERYthing in it was amazing to me, instead of just the ultra-complex stuff? That would be awesome. I may not be a teacher, but these videos have decided for me: I'm showing teaching my niece to play Minecraft. I'll wait a few years first, let her get used to walking IRL before WASD. :D

[Xaio30]

@smashbi121 Wait.. what? Then he wouldn't have made the game until a few decades later!

[RandomPecans]

@smashbi121 Still, wouldn't that mean you'd have to wait 20+ years for him to start working on Minecraft?

[talic017]

@smashbi121 if notch was born, how is he going to create minecraft if he cant even stand up T_T.

[TheKyshu]

@talic017 haha :D i think he meant Minecraft ^^

[EleonKing]

nice to see how children react to minecraft
