Four individual Escape Room activities about the following presidents from American history:

• George Washington
• Thomas Jefferson
• Abraham Lincoln
• Franklin Roosevelt

Ideal for fifth grade or sixth grade, the breakout room activities are perfect for group work, starting a new history topic, President's Day activities, team-building activities or for fun, engaging and interactive lessons. The activities can be used in English also as they incorporate some ELA skills, or in Social Studies.

Each 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 each of the four resources:

• 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 of each activity students will read an informational text 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 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.

I Honestly Enjoy Subtraction!  is a differentiated math craftivity.  Students will delight in the opportunity to create their own Honest Abe math booklet.

Students assemble Abraham Lincoln’s face, hat, and beard.  Attach the I honestly enjoy subtraction label to the hat. The cover of your subtraction booklet is ready.

Next, students work on each subtraction problem.  I like to copy the problems on different color paper.  By doing this, I can quickly determine where each student is currently working.  My students must show a different method for each subtraction problem. When each problem is finished correctly, they add another sheet to their Honest Abe booklet.

Here’s a little background…

During our multi-digit subtraction unit students are encouraged to explore and try a variety of methods.  Currently, our second grade students do not complete multi-digit subtraction following the standard algorithm.  We have worked on a variety of different methods: number line, expanded form, ten sticks and ones, just to name a few.  

Why does our school encourage this variety?  Teachers at the middle school level were noticing that some students didn’t have firm grasp on place value.  To give our students a solid foundation, we have dedicated the early years of math number sense, place value, and exploration.

A blank page is included to create differentiated math problems.  Students with special needs complete problems that I create at their just right level.

When the subtraction problems are finished staple the sheets behind Abe Lincoln’s face and you’re done.
