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 Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream 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 A Midsummer Night's Dream by William Shakespeare. 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?

Titania and Oberon’s squabbles have led to a shift in the seasons and chaos throughout the land… and your students have all found themselves TRAPPED inside their magical fairy world. The only way to escape is by solving 5 different skills-based puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• In the first task, students must match each character from A Midsummer Night's Dream with their description by drawing a line connecting them. Letters not intersected by these lines will form their first code word.
• In the second task, students must complete a crossword puzzle about major plot points, characters, setting, and quotes from the play. Circled letters within the crossword, once unscrambled, reveal their second code.
• In the third task, students must complete fill-in-the-blank sentences using vocabulary words from the play. The vocabulary cards, once assembled correctly, will reveal the third code.
• In the fourth task, students must perform a close reading of Titania’s “Set Your Heart at Rest” speech to Oberon in Act II scene i. Letters of the correct multiple choice question answers reveal the fourth code.
• In the fifth and final task, students must discover the hidden message (a notable quote from A Midsummer Night's Dream) using clues from the first four tasks and answer the final question.

Product Includes:

How does it work?

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.

• The Globe: In the second task, students must correctly identify components of the Globe Theater. Shaded boxes within the correct answers reveal the second code.
• Name That Play: In the third task, students must match fictional newspaper headlines with the Shakespearean play they represent. This task is in the form of a mat puzzle and the code is revealed when students have matched all plays correctly.
• 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!

• Christina's Dream: In the second task, students will perform a close reading of Christina Georgina Rossetti's My Dream and determine figurative language devices in the poem.
• Per-Sonnet-Ification: In the third task, students will read passages from Shakespeare's sonnets and determine the objects being personified in each.

How does it work?

In order to graduate from your ELA class and make it to summer vacation, your students must escape your classroom by solving 5 different poetry-based puzzles, discovering a secret message, and finding clues along the way.

• Changing Tides: In the first task, students must will identify poetic devices in the poem, The Tide Rises, the Tide Falls by Henry Longfellow.
• School's End Sonnet: In the second task, students will answer multiple choice questions of a sonnet about the end of the school year.
• Watch Your Tone: In the third task, students must match excerpts from summery poems with their tones.
• Maze Craze: In the fourth task, students must solve a word maze.
• Van Gogh's Wisdom: The final task brings everything together in which students must input the codes from the first 4 tasks into a quote by Van Gogh using rhymes. When the quote is complete, they will escape to summer vacation.

Summary:

Carl August Sandburg was an American poet, biographer, journalist, and editor. He won three Pulitzer Prizes: two for his poetry and one for his biography of Abraham Lincoln. During his lifetime, Sandburg was widely regarded as "a major figure in contemporary literature", especially for volumes of his collected verse, including Chicago Poems (1916), Cornhuskers (1918), and Smoke and Steel (1920). He enjoyed "unrivaled appeal as a poet in his day, perhaps because the breadth of his experiences connected him with so many strands of American life". When he died in 1967, President Lyndon B. Johnson observed that "Carl Sandburg was more than the voice of America, more than the poet of its strength and genius. He was America."

This 9th - 12th grade canonized poem allows students to understand life, family, and their world.
