2nd life TEEN- Review by Emerald

A review by Emerald (age 121/2)
This is a review of my first thoughts about Second life teen.

My mom has had an account in Second life for a long time but when I asked her to make me an account she said it wasn’t for kids. That there were things I shouldn’t see around the world but she would let me watch her walk or fly around certain parts of the world and I thought it looked really neat.

I was very excited when I received an email from my mom linking me to Second life Teen!
Second life Teen is like the original second life world but designed for Teens ages 13-17 and the TOS indicates that only teens between this ages are allowed.

Mom set up my account for me and I began creating my second life persona.
I made a tall pale skinned girl with Dark brown hair wearing the beginning “Gothic” themed outfit.
The first area of the world is an info hub. This is where you get all of your basic first time questions answered.
Next I traveled to a lot of new places I’m still learning about.
To make money I “Sit in money chairs” or I can ‘Dance” right now I have 100 Lindens.
(Lindens are what the money is called in game)
I have not spent any lindens yet I’m saving up to get some new cool clothes.
I think the coolest thing about second life teen is designing my girl
The thing I don’t really like is some people don’t talk very nice
Will I continue to plat second life teen?
Maybe. I like it all right but I like playing World of Warcraft even More!Click the links to read more about second life or second life TEEN.

Using WoW to teach English?

Go check out this article over at Gamasutra.com.

I think it's a interesting read on how they are using WoW to teach English to kids in Asia!
My Sister In-Law uses in game tatics to help my nephew learn phonics and I think it's fantastic!

I know that chatting in game with my kids has helped them greatly in reading and writing in School!
I can honestly say that since our Daughter has started playing WoW Daily she has gone from a D in Reading/Writing to an A! So as long as her grades make the mark we will continue to shell out monthly for her Pay to play service and it's cheaper than Sylvan! WOOT!
