First Day of Awakening School
On a student's first day of Awakening School, after creating a student avatar, they meet their homeroom teacher.
Their teacher introduces them to a classmate that will give them a tour around the school to learn what can be found at Awakening School. This tour will highlight exciting experiences such as:
Beasties and beastie battles
Once the tour is complete, students are rewarded with coins and can begin exploring Awakening School on their own.
The Schoolyard
In the Schoolyard, students can engage in various educational activities and have lots of fun in the process!
On the playground, students will be challenged to apply their critical thinking skills in order to find the shortest path to collect stars and answer content-related questions. The faster the students complete the challenge, the more coins they earn!
In the Schoolyard, additional educational activities include:
A life-size periodic table scavenger hunt where students learn about elements and their uses and composition.
An interactive multiplication table that provides students a visualization of their multiplication facts.
Multiple educational Minigames scattered throughout the School & Schoolyard.
Math Classroom

At the Physics Toybox, students will explore using an interactive simulation to learn about physical properties and forces. Students will experiment by manipulating various forces and motions, and will learn and iterate from past failures - an important 21st century skill!
School Shop
The School Shop is where students can turn their hard-earned coins into awesome new avatar gear! Students can choose from a selection of hats, shirts, pants, and shoes to individualize their avatar. They can even pick up some new dance moves and emotes!
If students do not have enough coins for a purchase at the School Shop, encourage them to complete some beastie battles or Schoolyard competitions.
Beastie Battles
While exploring Awakening School, both inside and out, students will have the opportunity to participate in beastie battles. During beastie battles, students are provided content-related questions based on the assignment they just finished. Students are rewarded for answering questions correctly and winning battles. Rewards include coins and/or beasties to join their squad!
Students should look for a character with a beastie beside them in order to start a battle.
Quizzler Awakening Game Show
In the School lobby, students can test their knowledge and luck by participating in the exciting Quizzler Game Show.
In the Quizzler Game Show, students can play alone or with other student players. The students must answer Questions and Luck Rounds correctly in the game show to win coins! The questions students will have to answer in the game show correlate with the grade level and the subject they have selected within their Awakening accounts.
