Description
In this Groundhog Day digital breakout escape room, students will learn some cool facts about the weather. Groundhog Day, and it’s time for the groundhog to make his annual weather prediction. This year, the groundhog has some extra help! Opening the weather school last year was a very good idea. Solve each clue to learn some cool facts about Groundhog’s Day.
A digital breakout based on the book Groundhog Weather School by Joan Holub.
**Please be sure that your IT does not block Google Links that have a shared setting of "anyone with a link" if you plan to use this resource.** If this is the case, you will need to make a copy of the clues and insert the new link into the slides. If you need assistance, please reach out to me at shenvalleyveganteacher@gmail.com.

I have included a NO PREP version of Groundhog Weather School - Digital Breakout.
The NO PREP version is ready to go, just "make a copy" for each student and then share (Google Classroom works best! If you do not use Google Classroom, you will need to be able to share the link with your students e.g. Seesaw, a class webpage, Wakelet, QR Code, etc...).
- You will NOT have access to the data
Students will have the opportunity to practice:
- Critical Thinking Skills
- Collaboration
- Communication
- Problem-solving
- Perseverance
This Digital Breakout Includes:
Student Google Slides w/ locks
Answer Key and Clues
Lock 1 - Students will look carefully for hidden clues in an advertisement.
Lock 2 - Students will determine cause and effect.
Lock 3 - Students will sort facts from opinions.
Lock 4 - Students will put the events in the correct sequential order.
FAQ:
1. Should I use present mode? No, students need access to the entire slide deck.
2. Where do I find the clues? Students should click on the "Click HERE for the clue," then click on the long BLUE URL. Some clues "force" students to make a copy. This allows them to manipulate the resource. Once the clue is solved, students will need to return to the original slide deck. (Be assured that students catch on quickly)
3. Where do students click "submit?" Students click "Click HERE or Click HERE to unlock the lock," then click on the BLUE URL to "breakout"
Each slide contains one link to the clue and one link to the lock. Just share with your students in Google Classroom, ensuring to select "make a copy" for each student.
Please feel free to reach out to me. My students really enjoy using Google Slides to "breakout!" It provides the scaffolding many need to be successful with such tasks as critical thinking, communicating, collaborating, and problem-solving!
