Queen Elizabeth II Escape Room Activity

By Creative Primary Literacy

A Queen Elizabeth II Escape Room activity. Ideal for fifth grade or sixth grade, the activity is perfect for group work, starting a new topic on British History, team-building activities or for a fun, engaging and interactive lesson. The activity can be used in English class as it incorporates some ELA skills or in Social Studies.

The activity has been split into four different tasks; your students will need to complete each of the tasks to reveal a word. Together the four words make a phrase for them to escape the room.

Included in this resource:

  • Student guidelines for completing the tasks meaning no teacher prep
  • A student answer key to complete as they work through the tasks
  • An informational text or reading comprehension passage
  • A true or false fact sheet & maze
  • A crossword puzzle
  • A timeline activity & answer key
  • A wordsearch puzzle
  • Teacher answer sheets for each task

⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻⎻

In Task 1 students will read an informational text about the recently deceased queen and then find their way through a maze by answering true or false comprehension questions. If they answer the questions correctly they will reveal their first word.

In Task 2 students will use the same informational text to complete a crossword puzzle. Within the puzzle there are several hidden letters which will need to be unscrambled on the completion of the puzzle to reveal the second word.

In Task 3 students will have to cut out 27 timeline task cards about important historical events from the 1900s before putting them in order from the earliest date to the most recent. When they have finished their task they can glue them onto the answer key which will reveal their third word.

In Task 4 students will have to find the missing words in a wordsearch puzzle before finding a hidden word from the letters that are left over in the puzzle. This hidden word is their fourth and final word.

Students can then complete their student answer key with the four words they revealed before checking with the teacher to see if they have escaped successfully.

Back to School Four Corners | Mini Debate | Icebreaker | Digital Games 4 Teens

By Perfectly Planned Designs

Looking for fun activities for the first days or week back to school? Well, you found the right place...this classroom game bundle will get your students excited to be in school, create relationships, and get students talking and connected! Great for any time of year or as a back-to-school get-to-know-you activity! Students are always nervous on the first day and playing games like Four Corners is a fun, stress-free way for them to get to know their classmates, while sharing similarities about themselves!

►Use them as engaging class activities throughout the year! It's the perfect icebreaker for middle and high school!

WHAT'S INCLUDED....

1. Four Corners Icebreaker

Use this fun whole class activity to get your students up and out of their seats and making connections! You will find a few typical all about me questions, but the majority of the slides are geared toward the interests of teenagers, leaning into social media, musical artists, food, fashion and more! You definitely won't see overused questions like "what's your favorite color?" or "How many siblings do you have?" You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one of the questions. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices. You'll quickly see that students will start opening up as they relax and feel confident to defend their choices.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

  • 50 Questions (Google Slides)

  • Includes a Blank Editable Slide

  • 4 Printable Classroom Labels

The presentation includes 50 get-to-know-you questions. For example...

  • Who do you think would win the rap battle?
  • Which music artist do you think has the best live performances?
  • If you could collaborate with any fashion brand, which would it be?
  • What's your favorite way to spend time online?
  • If you could switch lives with any celebrity for a day, who would it be?
  • Which fast food restaurant would you want to eat at for the rest of your life?

HOW TO USE IT:

  • first day of school get-to-know-you activity
  • icebreaker
  • brain breaks
  • morning meeting
  • teach respecting differences

2. Four Corners Mini Debate Activity

Teacher burnout begone!!! You AND your students will love this fun activity! Perfect as icebreakers for those in-between days during back to school when you don't have anything planned. This Four Corners Mini Debate Activity is a great no-prep activity that you can use any time of year for a fun, engaging activity that your students will LOVE!

Students will love moving around the room as you click through the 35 debatable topics - mostly controversial, but some are silly as well! This is perfect for middle school/high school, but teachers are encouraged to preview the statements and skip over any which you feel are too controversial for your student population. (I definitely stayed away from the most controversial topics).

►You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to voice their opinions, defend their positions, and even learn something new!

►The printable Reflection Sheet will allow them to reflect on the ideas presented, and asks them to discuss two issues that they may have changed their stance on after the debate and the reasons why. This is an activity I use in my classroom every year and I know your students will love it!

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

  • 35 Statements (Google Slides)

  • Includes a Blank Editable Slide

  • 5 Printable Classroom Signs

  • Student Reflection Sheet

STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE:

►If you agree with the statement, move to the side of the room labeled “Agree” or “strongly agree.” If you disagree, move to the side of the room labeled, “Disagree” or “strongly disagree.” If you’re not sure how you feel about the topic yet, move to the side of the room labeled, “Undecided.” (I typically have "undecided" students stand in the middle and hang the other posters in the four corners of the room.)

***Students should be prepared to defend their position even if they’re undecided.
