Need to motivate your Spanish students?  Want to incorporate more REAL culture into your classes? Need them to work together?  This digital escape room is a FUN way to do both!  Students must watch and read the Google slides and also do some research of their own to help solve a crime. Students can complete this challenge in school or digitally from home! No-prep fun activity for ALL of your classes!

Some important objects have been stolen from the Soccer Museum at Camp Nou in Barcelona.  Help the police chase down the thieves as you travel around Spain!  To find the next clue, students must answer cultural questions about Spain.  From those answers, they must figure out codes that will open digital locks (in a google form).  Students get the next set of pictures and clues after each lock is opened! 

This Escape Room is suitable for all middle and high school students.  It focuses on famous places and interesting cultural details, not on grammar.  This resource comes in a Spanish version appropriate for students in Year 3 and up, and also an English version for Novice Spanish students or any student interested in Spanish culture!  It’s a great way to get students talking to each other at the beginning of the year, or a fun way to wrap up a school year too! Need a brain break from the normal curriculum? This should do the trick!

Want your Spanish students to learn about Hispanic Heritage Month , but  reading comprehension is getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This mystery-solving reading about famous Hispanics goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  

   Students play the role of journalists, all trying to “scoop” each other by getting a story first!  There is to be a big Lifetime Achievement Award given to someone of Hispanic heritage, and the journalists want to find out who is winning the award first!  They will read about the 10 candidates.  While they read the parts, they are also looking for “code words”.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of who the award winner is, and whoever figures it out first gets the scoop!  It’s so much fun! 

    After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a graphic organizer for students to organize notes about famous hispanos, a “tell me in your own words” activity,  and a writing follow up where students use their reading comprehension and critical thinking to invent an explanation for why the voting board chose this person as the winner.  Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

The reading cards are written in Spanish for Novice High/Intermediate Low.  The questions are written in English, and answers will be in English as well.  The instructions and mission are written in English.

Is reading comprehension getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This reading about famous Afro-Latinos goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  

   There’s been a robbery at  a famous museum for Afro-Latinos!  The students play the role of the investigator of the museum robbery.  They have to read all 10 parts of the story to get the full picture of what was taken and why the objects are important.  While they read the parts, they are also looking for “code words”.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of who stole the important artifacts.  It’s so much fun! 

    After, you can decide which of the 3 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 3; a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a graphic organizer for students to organize notes about 4 Afro-Latinos, and a writing follow up where students use their reading comprehension and critical thinking to invent an explanation for why the thief stole the items.  Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!
