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 O. Henry's The Gift of the Magi 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 Gift of the Magi by O. Henry.

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?

The ghost of O. Henry has returned from the grave and is upset because he believes that people nowadays care too much about getting expensive gifts at Christmas and no longer understand the true importance and wisdom of the magi. He has decided to destroy Christmas forever, unless your students can show their knowledge of the short story and in turn, recall the lessons that Jim and Della learned themselves not so long ago.

• Magi Trivia: In the first task, students must complete a crossword puzzle about major plot points, characters, setting, figurative language, and quotes from the story. Circled letters within the crossword, once unscrambled, reveal the code.
• Merry Vocabulary: In the second task, students must match the vocabulary words from The Gift of the Magi with their definitions by drawing a line connecting them. Letters not intersected by these lines will form their second code word. Clue cards using the words in context are included.
• Word Maze: In the third task, students must complete a word maze. Letters collected along the way form the third code.
• Off the Chart: In the fourth task, students must fill in a chart containing literary elements and questions about the short story. Shaded boxes next to the correct answers reveal the fourth code.
• Missing Word: In the final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle that forms a notable quote from the story with one missing word. Once the puzzle is assembled and students figure out the missing word, they may escape the room and save Christmas.

Two of my favorite French Noël - Christmas speaking activities to keep students engaged, communicating in French, and having fun are included in this bundle. If you are looking for ways to improve la communication orale in your French class, your students will love playing taboo and speaking French together using the question cards! Check out the preview for more details. Save 20% with this bundle.

Taboo is a fun French speaking and listening game where one student has to guess a word based on clues given in French by other students. The catch is that they cannot mention anything that is included in a list of taboo words.

All of the words on each card are written in French and English. This is very useful as many of the words will be new to students whether they are beginners or very advanced. You can easily modify this game to play it with all levels! 

Question cards are perfect for reinforcing grammar, vocabulary, and getting your students to speak French together! Very low prep. Just print and cut out the cards and you're ready to go!

Almost all of the est-ce que questions are asked in the tu form and require students to reply using je. Some of the questions encourage oui and non responses, but never without pushing for a bit more information like asking pourquoi. The questions include le présent, le passé composé et le futur proche.

Included With French Noël Taboo Game:

• How to play French Taboo (beginner and advanced levels)
• 30 printable taboo cards in French and English
• Page for recording new words in French in English

Included With French Noël Question Cards:

• 30 black and white speaking cards
• 30 color speaking cards
• 10 ways to use these cards
• Scoot game instructions
• Scoot recording sheet

Taboo Games Teacher Testimonial:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Love this! Great design, great differentiation of playing for lower levels (or higher levels), and love that there are so many topics! Great words included in each one." - Ashley Lefevre

Question Cards Teacher Testimonial:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This is great for when I do group speaking time. My students move into their groups, choose a card and pose the question to their group. I like to walk around and listen to the conversations and grade using the TALK rubric.” - Ada M.
