Direct your Spanish students’ excitement about winter break with this Digital Escape Room about how Christmas is celebrated in Spanish-speaking countries! Your students will LOVE this FUN challenge!  They will work in groups to solve “clues” (which are actually content related learning + questions) and figure out how to unlock the digital  locks to gain access to the next clue!  All the while they will learn about why Christmas is important in Spanish-speaking countries and what some popular traditions are.  They will end their challenge by making some cultural comparisons.

This FUN Escape Room Challenge is suitable for Spanish students in grades 7-12!  The learning and questions are written in English, though there is a video in Spanish with English subtitles and a vocab puzzle which will require students to match Spanish terms related to Christmas with their English translations.  (Students will learn these words through their reading/viewing during the challenge.) There are teacher instructions and hints/explanations about how to solve the puzzles in case your students need some help. I have updated some parts to have easier versions for middle school students!

This digital escape room uses a Google Form™, a Google Slide™ and and Google Docs™.  Parts of the “clues” can be printed if you choose, but the locks must be “opened” virtually via Google Forms™.
