Description
FINALLY! An escape room with all the added materials to help teach and reinforce the skills being used in the game. Not only do you get an escape room with this unit, you will also get interactive notebook flaps, centers, vocabulary cards, activity pages, exit slips, and “I can” statement cards!
This unit focuses on the math domain of Operations and Algebraic Thinking for 3rd grade. Questions are included to review each standard in this domain in the escape room. Also, in this unit you will find:
- Interactive notebook flaps for each standard
- An activity page for each standard
- A center for each standard
- Vocabulary cards that correlate with the OA math domain
- “I can” statement for each standard
- An exit slip for each standard
Detailed pictures are included for the interactive notebook flaps. This way, teachers can see how to set up the flaps and create the interactive notebook portion of the unit.
The vocabulary cards would work great with a math word wall!

About the Escape Room:
As you teach the standards in the Operations and Algebraic Thinking domain, use these materials to reinforce the skills. Then, when finished, use the escape room game as a culminating activity. As your students do the breakout, they won’t even realize they are reviewing skills, because they will be having too much fun!
Will your class escape in time? Try the escape room style game included in this mini unit with your students today! This is a fun game that is perfect for reviewing 3rd grade Operations and Algebraic Thinking. Students will practice representing and solving multiplication and division problems, solving word problems, understanding properties of multiplication, finding unknown factors, looking for patterns, multiplying and dividing within 100, solving two-step word problems, and more!
The escape room is an interactive game where the students are timed. They are trying to escape the dragon attacking the castle. Students must solve a string of math 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. The teacher gets to set the time limit for students to complete the escape, but 60 minutes is the average most students will need to finish it.
**Versions with and without QR codes included!
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.
