How does it work?
Students begin in an escape room and you can instruct them to 'follow the path' or 'Choose a Path" Choose a path will allow you to pick and choose the countries you want to do each day. The first stop: Christmas in America. After solving the puzzle, they will head to the next stop to learn about the next holiday and solve the puzzle. Clues include puzzles, codes, matching games, mazes, ciphers, and more!
Because each page in this escape room has 3 components, you may want to discuss the expectations with your students. You may want to ask them to read about the holiday the first time through and then do the clue. Then, they can go back to watch the videos. The videos are enjoyable, and I think they will like them. However, if there is a time restraint, you may want to do that another day.
This escape room will probably take students 45-60 minutes to complete, depending on student ability levels. A time limit may be given, but this can cause stress, so determine what is best for your class.
