Description
Will your class escape in time? Oops! Your students have accidentally set their time machine back to prehistoric times. They are now roaming around with dinosaurs. This isn’t even the bad news though, because they have somehow lost the time machine! To make it back home, students must solve a string of clues and math problems hidden throughout the room. This is a review game for the concepts taught in 4th grade, under the domain of Measurement and Data. If your class has never played an escape game or breakout game before, I suggest playing as a whole class for the first time.
**Versions with and without QR codes included.
This is an interactive game where the students are timed. Students try and solve clues and math problems to breakout and escape the classroom.You, the teacher, can decide how much time your students have to complete the task. I will suggest 45 minutes, but it is up to your discretion. 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). To unlock their envelopes, students will need to solve math problems. A paper is provided so students can show their work for each problem. 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 problem.
*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.
Topics covered include:
Measurement conversions

My kids do really well with these when I use them as a center rotation and have the groups pick up where previous groups left off. A good “break” from traditional work!

Morgan Chewning –
My kiddos loved this activity! They had so much fun getting to move around the classroom. They loved getting to “hunt” each of the clues. If you have more than one group, I HIGHLY recommend using the color coded option– I didn’t have access to a color printer, so I had to use black and white. My kids kept grabbing all of the folders for each clue instead of one at a time!
Theresa G. –
So much fun!
Sheila W. –
Great resource, I can’t wait to use this with my students this year!

Right on time and not a moment too late! I’m going to find some dino video to display on my SMART Board to add to the effect! Can’t wait! (You know, I can see you taking this concept/game into Language Arts…Author’s Purpose, synonyms/antonyms, context clues….oh, allusions, ordering adjectives!!!)
