Description

Will your class escape in time? Try this escape room game with your students today! This is a fun game that is perfect for reviewing reading strategies, specifically summarizing and context clues. Students will be visiting different countries all over the world, and learning about their Christmas traditions. This game is intended for 3rd-5th grade students.

This is an interactive game where the students are timed. They are trying to save Christmas by finding Santa’s lost toy bag. Students must solve a string of questions and clues, as well as decode different ciphers to escape. If your class has never played an escape game before, I suggest playing this as a whole class. However, materials are provided for up to 6 different groups to play at one time.

**Versions with and without QR codes included!

Students try and solve clues and questions to breakout and escape the classroom. You, the teacher, can decide how much time your students have to complete the task. I suggest 60 minutes, but it is up to your discretion. You can even split the time up and play 30 minutes one day, and 30 minutes a second day. Also, you can project a timer for your class, or put one somewhere for all the students to see, so they can keep track of how much time they have left to complete their task.

This is similar to a scavenger hunt where students will be moving around the room, looking for clues to unlock their envelopes (I have included riddles and suggestions on where to hide each clue). A paper is provided so students can write their work down. For many of the questions, students must have an answer that matches one on an envelope. If the answers do not match, they can’t open or “unlock” the envelope, and must rework the question.

*Everything is included, however teachers must provide their own envelopes.

I give step by step instructions on how to set up the game, including pictures! This is sure to capture the attention of your students.

Places students will visit on their journey around the world:
England
Italy
France
Russia
Canada
Australia
Mexico
Sweden
The Netherlands
America
Germany

Students will be practicing the following reading comprehension skills:
context clues
summarizing

    I loved the unit I bought for Halloween. However I really struggled with this one. I had an extremely hard time getting it ready, honestly could have just been me, and my kids not one in any grade from 3-6th was able to complete this. But I know it can be done and next year I plan on working on the skills and doing some practice before this so my students can do this fun unit.

  91. Keana Peterman –

    My students really enjoyed this!

  92. Tannis Wilhelmus –

    My class loved this, but if I could do it all over again, I might have started with a simpler example as a whole class task, then done this in teams. There were a few students who ‘got it’ right away, but because it was completely new, there were a few who struggled with following the very specific steps to move on. On the upside, next year’s crew who saw us doing this activity throughout the hall, library and class are very intrigued for next year! 🙂

  93. Yolanda T. –

    This was a fun and challenging activity to do with my students before winter break.

  100. Melissa C. –

    Love using this is my class!!! Directions are very clear! BUT!! It is time-consuming to set up, so do not try to purchase the night before 🙂

  205. Alycia Y. –

    Fun, but a little easy for the grades listed. I teach 6th.

  206. Jessica C. –

    WOW! This was so much fun! It was pretty difficult for my 3rd graders but an excellent challenge! I hope to do another one this year!

  215. Sarah Wooldridge –

    The prep for this was a little intensive since I chose to have my 5th graders complete this escape game in small groups. However, it was worth the time spent. They loved racing against one another, and were SO engaged. Once I got the hang of setting it up, the rest of the prep was pretty easy. My kids had a blast, and it forced them to really work as a team. (Social skills!) I love that there are so many ELA concepts to choose from too! I’ll definitely be coming back to snag some more of these Escape games. 🙂 Thank you!

  216. Tricia R. –

    Thanks.

  217. Ms Kottmann –

    This was so fun for my kids! They loved it!

    My students loved this, and they had so much fun!

  222. Natalie P. –

    This took me a while to figure out and make sure I was getting it all organized correctly, but once I did I got rolling! Took some time getting the envelopes prepared, but well worth it. My kids LOVED it! Planning on buying another one to do as an end of the unit activity. Great resource–you put lots of love and time into making these! Thanks! (4th grade classroom)

  223. Amy B. –

    Another fantastic Escape Room. My class begs to do more of these. I now own and have built 16 of them!

  224. Erin Jenkins –

    Thank you

  225. Sara S. –

    This was a fun and beneficial activity for my students to participate in before the winter break. The volume of reading passages was a little high for my lower learners, but overall it was a fun activity.

  226. Kimberly W. –

    I LOVE this…. but…. it’s a l-o-t of prep (the author is very clear about this as well). It also takes clear explanations with younger elementary students (3rd graders), but after you do it once, it’s smooth sailing and the kids LOVE it! It’s great for wrapping up a unit!

  227. Melanie M. –

    Such a fun resource! Thank you.

  228. Heather S. –

    Love these!

  248. Dana Brooks –

    The kids loved this!

  249. Trudy C. –

    Great team work activity

  250. Anna T. –

    Man this is such a great series of products. So fun and engaging and the best part is, it helps students to solidify their knowledge of other countries! It really draws the information they’ve learned out of them.

  251. Kelly Beskid –

    great resource for this time of year

  252. Gloria R. –

    perfect

  253. Buyer –

    Very creative and challenging. Thank you!

  254. Capi CLASSics –

    My kids enjoyed doing this activity. It was definately a challenging activity for my 5th grade students, but a great way to wrap up our “Holiday Celebrations”.

  255. Brittany C. –

    My kiddos love these!

  256. Jennifer G. –

    This looked like a fun activity. I got sick the week I was planning on using it and didn’t want to leave for a sub. I will definitely be using this next year and I am looking into the other activities offered.

  257. Lori Willis –

    We love all of your Escape Rooms! My students are always asking for more!

  258. Buyer –

    kids loved it! We learned a loT!!

  259. Fela’s Fabulous Fourthies –

    This was A LOT of work to put together, and actually takes a really long time to do the activity. We were unable to finish even with an hour’s time. That said, my kids were SO engaged and really loved it! I wish I had had more time for it, and will provide more time when I do it again next year.

  260. Ms Aldred –

    This is a great product! It did take a while to put together and I didn’t do a very good job of teaching it, but I’m looking forward to doing it again next year. One of my challenges was since we did this whole group, I didn’t have enough ciphers made so multiple students in the classroom could be working to crack the code. Next time, I’ll have extras so everyone is actively engaged in that part. Teaching is often about learning for the teacher too.

  261. Jessica W. –

    My kids LOVE these activities!! They are intensive to set up, but I had the kids help me put them back together afterwards, which was a big time saver. 🙂

  262. Read Write and Blue –

    My students were highly engaged and had such a great time.

  263. Jennifer H. –

    Looks like a lot of prep work, but hopefully worth it!

  286. Chastity M. –

    I didn’t put this together in time to use this year, but will plan better next year!

  287. Sarah S. –

  301. katie catalani –

    This is a wonderful resource….There was so much provided that I will have to wait until next year so that I can get it all ready … LOTS of work went into this.

  302. The Polka Dot Desk –

    My kids LOVED this! It took quite a bit of prep on my part but totally worth how much they enjoyed it. I will do more but use the summer to prep them. Great resource!!!

  309. Third in TN –

    Really great product – I appreciate all the work that was put into it and it taught my students a good lesson on what happens when you do not cooperate with your teammates! 🙂 I wish that the summarizing tasks had something to do with actually cracking the code, though.

  310. Kathy N. –

    Thanks for the resource to help with the holiday restlessness.

    Another great resource that my kids loved. Thank you for sharing your work.

    Thank you for creating this.

  319. Jessica Phillips –

    Amazing, my students LOVED this. It was high interest and engaging for all.

  320. Nicole J. –

    This was a really fun activity! It was the first Crack the Code I’ve ever done. It took awhile to set up, but was worth the time. It took my class almost an hour and a half to complete, but I think that was because I have a class of 3rd-4th graders, so they were on the younger end and it was our first one. I would definitely recommend it, the kids enjoyed it.

  321. Rebecca H. –

    WOW, what an awesome activity for my 5th graders!! I do have a question about the printing, do you have any suggestions as to why when I print it out the bottom gets cut off a little every time? Thanks!

    Give yourself a few days to get everything printed, laminated, and prepared. It takes a little bit of time, but is completely worth every single penny.
