PTA School Clubs

DnD Club

Who: Any MME kiddo grades 2nd-6th (or adult volunteer)

What you need to join: Nothing! You can bring your own dice if you want: one each of a 20 sided, 12 sided, 10 sided, 8 sided, 6 sided, and 4 sided dice for a complete set. A character sheet is provided, and there is spare dice for those who need them. Upon joining, one of the adult facilitators will help the participant create their character.

When & Where: TBD (to be determined). Kevin Jepsin-Grant heads this club.

How: Attendees are divided into groups of 3-6 players, who will proceed through smaller encounters with influence on a wider ranging environment, led by adult volunteers. Some groups can be led by volunteer 5th or 6th graders depending on their experience and interest in leading the story for a group. There is no set story, it is developed over time based on the actions and outcomes determined by the players.

Why: We encourage imagination and deep thinking into the how and why of the participants characters actions… importantly, without a screen! We aim to have the participants learning about how they can work together utilizing their different character skills to succeed – or fail – at the tasks put in front of them. Even in failure, the story continues!

Garden Club

Who: any kids (and parent volunteers) in 1st-6th grade. 

What: All things related to gardens, plants, and growing things. A garden volunteer will be there to talk garden, weed, prune, plant, pick, and generally care for the garden with students as it goes through seasonal cycles. Parent volunteers to help are welcomed!

When: Every sunny Wednesday DURING school lunch period. Due to it being at lunch period it is only open to 1st-6th. (If you want to help me make a kinder/tk garden club let me know!)
