Game Components in Monogame

Windows

I’m trying to teach myself game programming and I have run into a wall. I’m using an older XNA book (http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920013709.do)
but using the MONOGAME framework. The book tells me to create a game
components, but I don’t think MONOGAME has that option. I’m sure exactly
where to go to next considering XNA is no longer supported and their
aren’t a lot of resources on MONOGAME.

(I’m using visual studio 2015 and I download the Monogame 3.4 from their website if that information is useful)

A game component is simply a class derived from GameComponent or DrawableGameComponent.

public class MyComponent : GameComponent

And override the constructor, Initialize and Update methods as appropriate.
