Students cannot escape until they complete 5 poetry-based tasks to show these ghosts of poets past that they do in fact know their poetry.

This resource features a rigorous, fun, and extremely informative escape room for one of the most celebrated playwrights of all time, William Shakespeare. It is the perfect way to introduce, re-introduce, or review the Bard with your students in an engaging and meaningful way.

In order to escape from Elizabethan England and return to the present day, your students must escape your classroom by solving 6 different puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• Shakespeare FAQs: In the first task, students must complete a crossword puzzle with questions about Shakespeare. Once complete, they must unscramble circled boxes to reveal the first code.
• The Globe: In the second task, students must correctly identify components of the Globe Theater. Shaded boxes within the correct answers will reveal the second code.

• My Mistress' Eyes: In the fourth task, students must analyze one of Shakespeare’s most famous sonnets, My Mistress’ Eyes are Nothing like the Sun. The letters of the multiple choice questions about the sonnet will form the fourth code.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the fifth task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle with a quote from one of Shakespeare’s plays.
• Putting it all Together: The final task brings the first 5 tasks together. Students will learn that each of the codes represent an aspect of one of Shakespeare’s plays. The name of the play is the key to escape Elizabethan England and return to the present day!

Get ready to have the most fun you'll have teaching with a lesson that your students will be talking about for years to come with Paolo Coehlo's The Alchemist ESCAPE ROOM!

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 Escape Room for The Alchemist by Paolo Coehlo. Planning an escape room may seem like quite the daunting task, but this product provides everything from the basics and set-up instructions to answer keys so that yours runs smoothly from start to finish. The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. All tasks are skills-based so that with this fun lesson, learning is not sacrificed. 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?

Instead of entering your classroom today, your students have arrived in the middle of the Sahara Desert where they have been captured by a band of Arabian soldiers. The soldiers demand their money and their lives and offer your students two options: turn themselves into the wind OR complete this escape room to display their knowledge of the novel, The Alchemist.

• Guess Who: In the first task, students must match each character from The Alchemist with their description by drawing a line connecting them. Letters not intersected by these lines will form their first code word.
• Plot it Out: In the second task, students must order the major plot points of The Alchemist on Freytag's Pyramid. When ordered correctly, letters in the shaded boxes on the chart form their second code.
• Quote Me On It: In the third task, students must match notable quotes from the novel with the universal lessons they teach. When cards are matched correctly, the third code is revealed.
• Criss-Cross: In the fourth task, students must complete a crossword puzzle about major plot points, characters, setting, and quotes from the novel. Circled letters within the crossword, once unscrambled, reveal the code.
