ESCAPE ROOM 1
Greetings,Will Rogers said, “I never met a man I did not like.” I say, “I never met a student who did not love an Escape Room.” Play it anytime – start of the year as an ice-breaker, before exams as a relaxer or reviewer, end of year celebration. You can even give them a single Escape puzzle once a week, or when you finish a lesson early or it flopped. And do not feel guilty. Escape Rooms are serious stuff -- they test problem-solving, thinking, team work, communications skills, and character.
