E-Learning Update:
★ A Google Site has been added to this resource that hosts all of the elements of this lesson. This means that you can use this lesson in an E-Learning Setting.
This purchase includes:
★ A detailed document outlining each clue card, setup, and running the game
★ An answer sheet for students
★ An editable Google Slides document for all of the clue cards
★ A digital breakout Google Form that is pre-set to accept the correct answers for this game
Notes:
★ Breakout games involve additional setup such as printing clues, color coding clues (if you let students work in teams), and in some cases writing on supplemental files with invisible ink
★ Supplies needed for this game include invisible ink pens, black light flashlights, and QR Readers
★ If you purchase this breakout and are not able to get all of the supplies, please get in touch with me. I can help you create alternate ways to present the clue to students if needed.
★ Most of these games involve clues that have a uniform answer, regardless of where the game is played. However, some games involve numbers such as pages in a dictionary or atlas. In these cases, the explanation document will tell you that you need to customize the answer based on your resources.
★ Please try the game at least one day before you would like to try it with your students and get in touch with me if you have any questions. I usually respond to emails within a few hours. Try it out beforehand to ensure that you completely understand how each clue can be solved.
★ The page that you download is only one page. This document is a PDF that links to a Google Doc with about thirty pages of documents related to the lesson. The file is set up this way to ensure that you always have access to the newest version of the document.

There are lots of great bits about this resource and there has clearly been a lot of time put into making it. There are a few things to note which might be useful for potential buyers and for the seller. Firstly, there is a lot of resources required to set this up. The links in the sellers document are to the American Amazon website but I was unable to find the same types of padlocks cheaply in the UK. There is a Google Form to use as an alternative but I think this made the game much trickier for my class as the necessary written format is not immediately clear. I also opted to make a new form as I realised the kids' input would be visible to anyone who had downloaded these files. Secondly, as the files are stored in a Google Drive it appears that anyone who purchases the resource can edit them. One of the resources didn't quite match up with the description in the PDF which made it seem as though someone else had edited it without leaving a copy of the original. Lastly, the resource is very American-centric which I hadn't anticipated from a Tes download. Date formats, important documents and propaganda are all American. Still usable but not ideal if you are based in the UK. Definitely worth the money for what you get but not exactly what I expected and unfortunately not something I will be able to use again.
