Escape Room Activities Teaching Resources
A collection of 'escape room' style activities that have been purposefully created for the primary classroom setting. Use these escape room activities to make your classroom buzz, while providing problem-solving and group work opportunities. These escape room activities allow students to engage in concepts they are currently learning in a puzzle format, which means it's fun!
The purpose of escape rooms is to work together to find the answers to the series of small puzzles or riddles, which when put together, make the code or secret password needed. You may decide to put a physical box that is locked in your classroom with a prize inside and the students have to actually try putting the code in to unlock it or just make it that the team that comes to you first with the code is the winner.
