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:

- Escape Room Basics

- Detailed Day-Of Instructions

- Escape Room Print & Classroom Preparation Checklist

- Student Teams Chart

- Materials for 5 Tasks: task signs to be folded upright, task instructions (2 per page for easy printing), and necessary information to be kept at stations

- Student Answer Booklet

- Teacher Answer Keys

- Escape Room Reflection for homework or in-class writing activity

- Theme Reflection for homework assignment or in-class writing activity

This escape room is an ideal way to end your unit on A Midsummer Night's Dream and a great way to review for the final test.

The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. Your students won’t even realize the higher order thinking skills they are applying during this activity!

How does it work?

Your students have worked hard throughout the unit following the Steve Harmon trial and today, their knowledge will be tested with an escape room covering the characters, plot, vocabulary, and elements of Monster.

• Guess Who: In the first task, students must match each character from Monster with their description by drawing a line connecting them. Letters not intersected by these lines will form their first code word.
• Criss Cross: In the second task, students must complete a crossword puzzle about major plot points, characters, setting, and quotes from the novel. Circled letters within the crossword, once unscrambled, reveal their second code.
• Legal Lingo: In the third task, students must complete fill-in-the-blank sentences using vocabulary words from the novel. Shaded letters within the answers, once unscrambled, reveal the third code.
• Plot Thickens: In the fourth task, students must answer challenging multiple choice questions about the novel. Letters of the correct answers reveal the fourth code.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the fifth and final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle that, once assembled correctly, reveals a notable quote from Monster. They must bring this quote to you in order to escape!
