ESCAPE ROOMS COME TO THE MIDDLE SCHOOL

Breakout Excitement Linked to Learning

8th Graders deployed their knowledge of the water cycle and its effects on weather and climate to break codes, open locks, and escape to victory in an exciting escape room activity in their Science classes. Working against the clock, students relied on teamwork to puzzle through clues presented as rhyming stories paired with visuals to break lock codes made up of letters, numbers, colors, shapes, and directional arrows.

The platform is called BreakoutEDU. This exciting activity linking collaborative game play to classroom content learning was made possible through a River Dell PTO grant. The BreakoutEDU program at RDMS also includes physical lock boxes that will be used when students and their teachers return to fully in-person learning.
