The first version of our Back to School ELA Escape Room has been so popular that we decided to create a second edition to give our valued teachers more options. You do not need to have the first edition to enjoy this one but definitely check it out!

There is no wonder why escape rooms are so popular; they are highly engaging and encourage people to work together and think creatively in order to solve different puzzles... all while trying to beat the clock! This meticulously-crafted resource features all of the materials you need to conduct a full-length ELA Escape Room. Planning an escape room may seem like quite the daunting task, but this product provides everything from the basics and set-up instructions to signs and answer keys so that yours runs smoothly from start to finish. The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. Your students will be having so much fun that they won’t even realize the higher order thinking skills they are applying in the playing of this game!

How does it work?

Your students must learn to collaborate with their new peers to escape your classroom by solving 5 different Language Arts skills-based puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• Comma Drama: In the first task, students must identify comma rules used in 6 celebrity quotes. When matched correctly on a mat puzzle, shaded boxes reveal the first code.
• Afri-cademy: In the second task, students must identify the parts of speech in words used in a non-fiction article about schools in Africa. Once complete, they must unscramble shaded boxes in the answers to reveal the code.
• Ah-Mazing: In the third task, students must solve a challenging word maze. Letters collected along the way form the third code.
• The Hard Way: In the fourth task, students must perform a close reading of The Hard Way by The Kinks. The letters of the multiple choice questions about the poem will form the fourth code.
• Pop Quiz!: In the final task, students must take information they gathered from the first four tasks and fill out a crossword puzzle. Once complete, they must unscramble the circled letters to reveal their final code to escape!

Product Includes:

- Escape Room Basics

- Detailed Day-Of Instructions

- Escape Room Print Checklist

- Student Teams Chart

- Welcome Sign for Your Door

- Materials for 5 Tasks: task signs to be folded upright, task instructions (2 per page for easy printing), and necessary information to be kept at stations

- Student Answer Booklets (small and large options)

- Teacher Answer Keys

- Code Word Theme Open Response for homework or in-class writing activity

- Escape Room Reflection for homework or in-class writing activity

Although this escape room is ideal for the beginning of the school year, it can be used at any time throughout the year without modification.

This is the planner that I am using this school year! I used a Happy Planner hole punch and dividers to make it into an easy and fun planner! You can also just 3 hole punch it and place it in a binder or however you want!

This is a Powerpoint file, so you can add Text Boxes where you choose to and make it editable or just print as is and write everything in. Depending on my mood, writing my lesson plans really helps me sometimes! I hope you enjoy it!
