This activity features a biographical escape room for one of the most beloved authors of all time, Jane Austen. It is the perfect way to introduce, re-introduce, or review the author with your students in an engaging and meaningful way.

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 on the life and works of Jane Austen. 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 massive knowledge they will gain about Jane Austen while playing this game!

How does it work?

The ghost of Jane Austen has risen from the grave with a dire warning. She is upset because she believes that people have become too concerned with money and looks and have forgotten the true meaning of love. She will not allow anyone to exit the room until everyone learns more about her, her novels, and the lessons she desires to instill upon us all.

• Austen FAQs: In the first task, students must complete a crossword puzzle with questions about Jane Austen's life. Once complete, they must unscramble circled boxes to reveal the first code.
• Inspired by Jane: Due to her sharp social commentary and the timelessness of her writing, Jane Austen’s works have been adapted and reimagined into countless novels, films, and television shows. Complete the word search of just 19 of these adaptations. Remaining letters form the second code.
• Extra! Extra! Read All About it!: In the third task, students must match fictional newspaper headlines with the novel by Austen that they represent. This task is in the form of a mat puzzle and the code is revealed when students have matched all short stories correctly.
• Austen's 7 Heroines: In the fourth task, students will match each of Austen's renowned female protagonists in the left column with her description on the right. Letters not intersected by the lines for the fourth code.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle with a notable Jane Austen quote.

If you are looking for the perfect way to review the hero's journey with your students using a rigorous yet engaging activity, look no further than this Hero's Journey 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 Hero's Journey Escape Room. 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?

Though your students have been learning about the 12 stages, 8 archetypes, and countless examples of the hero's journey through literature and film, it is time for them to become heroes themselves by escaping your classroom! In order to do this, they must work in small teams to solve 5 different puzzles related to the hero's journey, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• The 12 Stages: In the first task, students must match each stage of the hero's journey with its definition by drawing a line connecting them. These lines will intersect with letters that once unscrambled, will form their first code word.
• A Heroine's Journey: In the second task, students must correctly identify the 12 stages of the hero’s journey within The Wizard of Oz and place on a chart. When cards are assembled correctly, shaded boxes will reveal their second code.
• Guess Who: In the third task, students must play "Guess Who" by reading descriptions of 8 characters from popular hero's journey tales and identify which character archetype they represent. Letters within the correct answers will reveal their third code.
• Hero Worship: In the fourth task, students must perform a close reading of Amy Lowell's Hero-Worship. The letters of the multiple choice question answers about the poem will form the fourth code.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the fifth and final task, students must answer the final question, "What is the difference between a hero and an ordinary man?", by assembling a jig saw puzzle. Once assembled correctly, a quote from Ralph Waldo Emerson will reveal the answer.
