BEFORE THE ESCAPE
Give students a copy of the nonfiction reading passage before beginning the escape room. Give them time to read and annotate the passage.
DURING THE ESCAPE
Students will complete five different test prep, nonfiction reading-focused ELA tasks that rely on answering questions that mirror state testing questions, finding appropriate evidence for specific questions, determining the meaning of more challenging words, determining the text structure and the importance of text features, and writing an objective summary. Students should be able to complete the escape room in one 60-minute class period.
AFTER THE ESCAPE
Conclude the escape activity by reviewing the correct answers with your students. The answer keys are provided for each task. Students can also turn in these tasks to be graded or checked for understanding.
