Description
This fourth grade math long division activity will keep kids engaged as they practice and review dividing whole numbers with three or four digits by single-digit divisors. Students race on their mission to find the referee by solving a variety of puzzles requiring division skills. Challenging puzzles require students to divide by a single-digit to receive a clue, and word problems are used to find a locker combination. Best of all, this activity has no-prep, is fully automated, and self-checking! The online breakout is automated by a Google Form™, and can be completed by anyone with an internet connected device (Google™ accounts are NOT required). There is the option to create your own copy of the form for schools that require Google Forms™ to originate from within their system. *Please make sure that your school district does not block Google Forms™.

FAQ
- Do students need to have Gmail™ accounts? NO! Anyone with internet access and a tablet, computer, or even phone can complete the breakout. The escape room is automated by a Google Form™, but does not require the teacher or students to have Google™ accounts.
- How long will this take? That is the hardest question as the answer varies depending on each classroom, student, or group. Some students with a firm grasp on the concepts covered in this escape room will be able to complete the challenge very quickly (20-30 minutes), others will take longer. The majority of students will take about 45-60 minutes. Requiring students to use the recording form will increase the amount of time required to complete the puzzles. The form will not save student data, so if you are worried about your students not finishing on time, simply have them write their answers on scratch paper. They can then come back and quickly re-enter their answers and pick up where they left off.
- Will students have to search the web to figure out the puzzles? NO! All of the information needed will be provided in the Google Form™. The math in this activity is all standards-based.
- Can this be used for distance learning? Yes! Digital escape rooms are perfect for in-person, virtual, or hybrid models!
Digital escape rooms provide engaging skills practice, a fun review for test prep, or a quick plan for a sub. This activity encourages student engagement and cooperative learning.
