Since we are switching to Survival Mode, I would like to share a video Filip Smolčec created when he was only 9 years old (3 years ago) and the topic is "How to survive the first night in Minecraft" _ it's a good start for all the newbies to learn and see the difference between creative and survival mode. This is also an example how he learned and practiced English, but also presenting skills etc.

If you are keen on playing survival mode in Minecraft, maybe this short video tutorial on "How to survive the first night in Minecraft" by Filip Smolčec created 2 years ago (then age 9) will help you. I wanted to post it after Jeff Kuhn great introductory video to #minecraft and Vance Stevens asking for help :) P.S. Filip's English has rapidly improved since then. Carol Rainbow, if you have time check the video! #evomc15

Hello everyone, I'm Marijana Smolčec from Croatia, an EFL teacher, a proud mum of two  expert Minecraft gamers,  a wife , a Minecraft Newbie and also one of your co-moderators of #evomc15 session. It will be a fun time here with us and since everyone are keen on Minecraft and games these days I am no exception. My sons are the main reason why I am here and the way they use games for learning English and learning in general. My 3-2-1 is a video I created 2 years ago, it is a bit old, but enough for you to get to know me! :) Welcome to #evomc15 - looking forward to be learning with you! #introduction
