Make learning about the search for a vaccine and cure for COVID-19  interesting with this no-prep digital escape game.  The game includes access to a website where your students will hunt for the keys to unlock a set of locks.  Students will need to read the clues very carefully and watch videos, visit websites, and read texts to find the information they need to win the game.  Very easy to use - just send your students to the website and let them work!  Students can play individually or in teams.

Digital escape games are a fun way to start a unit, or to review at the end of a unit.  They can also be used to learn about a cultural or historical event.  This game will have your students reading carefully and paying attention to the smallest details in order to complete the challenge and unlock the locks.  

This item includes:

• Access to a website where your students can play the game
• Complete teacher's guide to playing the game
• Answer key so you can help students if they get stuck!

Your students will enjoy learning without even realizing that they are learning!  The challenging game format will get them excited about finding the code to unlock each lock - and the format of the clues for each lock will have them paying close attention - there's no way to solve the puzzles  without being 100% focused! 

Topics in this game include:

• The discovery of the SARS-CoV-2 virus
• Different types of coronaviruses
• Why washing your hands is so important
• How exponential growth works
•  Different medications that are being tried to treat COVID-19.
•  What we can learn about social distancing from the flu pandemic of 1918

Prep is very easy - you just need to share the website URL with your students.  You may want to test the site before you use it, just to make sure nothing is blocked by your district.  As some of the clues can be challenging to unlock, you may choose to help your students with the trickier ones.  With the teacher guide, you will have the answer key - so you can help guide students towards the correct answer by giving them hints, or if you have limited time, you can adjust the game by reducing the number of locks they need to unlock - just give them the answer(s) to help the activity fit your time constraints.

This game does NOT focus on morbid or scary parts of the disease - it is meant to give students the information they need in order to do their part to make healthy choices to help stop the spread of the disease.

This engaging 90-minute biology lesson introduces Grade 9–12 students to the human digestive system using the video “How the Digestive System Works”.

Students begin with a thought-provoking discussion to activate prior knowledge, followed by a focused video viewing with note-taking. The teacher then breaks down each organ's role in digestion, using diagrams and relatable analogies to deepen understanding. Students work in pairs to label the digestive system and map the journey of a sandwich through the body. Individual activities reinforce key vocabulary, the sequence of digestion, nutrient absorption, and common digestive issues. Students reflect on fun facts, such as why stool smells and how stomach acid functions. The lesson concludes with a class review of answers and an exit ticket for personal reflection.

This lesson blends visual, collaborative, and critical thinking strategies to ensure students not only understand the process of digestion but also appreciate how their own dietary habits affect their health. It's a hands-on, informative, and memorable exploration of a vital body system.
