How To Set Up and Play This ELA Escape Room
Setting up and playing in this ELA escape room is a breeze! Here are a few tips and tricks!
- Assign your escape room students to small groups of 2-3. Print a workbook booklet for each group (or one for each student, if you prefer). Have them cut apart the pages, arrange them in order, and staple them.
- Use your school’s LMS system to assign the Escape Room Game via Google Classroom, etc. Upload the PowerPoint or Slides file to your LMS and set it to make a copy for each student.
- Project Slide 1 in presentation mode and introduce the escape game to the students. Have students open the file on their device and place the slides in PRESENTATION mode.
- Students will have to answer the first question before Clue # 1 is revealed. They will work through the problems in their workbook, which, when correct, will reveal the code they need to progress to the next clue.
- Play continues in this manner until groups help Alice escape!
Answer keys to the workbook pages are also included.
