TEACHERS LIKE YOU SAID…
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Shelby R. says, "My students get hyper-competitive with each other with escape rooms and this one was no different! It was challenging for my 6th graders, but still super engaging, and my students did well working through the puzzles together. The topic of growth mindset gave us a lot to talk about."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ashley B. says, "I am a student teacher and I used this to teach and remind my students of Growth Mindset. They were all extremely engaged throughout the entire activity. I did incorporate ELD strategies (highlighting and designating certain parts of the reading passages) to have all students be a part of the understanding the content and how to apply their knowledge to "escaping" the room! I will definitely be using this for my future students!"
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Veronica E. says, "My students absolutely loved completing this escape room in small groups. They were extremely engaged the entire time and worked together to complete the escape room. Difficulty level was adequate enough. Students had to really brainstorm in order to solve the challenges."
