Reactivity Series Digital Escape Room

(0)
In the heart of Victorian London, a mysterious wave of terror has swept through the fog-laden streets. The notorious Jack the Ripper has resurfaced, leaving a series of gruesome murders in his wake. You are a young policeman racing against time to uncover the identity of Jack the Ripper before he claims his next victim. The story runs alongside tasks to test students’ knowledge and understanding of the reactivity series to include: understand how metals can be arranged in a reactivity series based on their reactions with :water and acid. understand how metals can be arranged in a reactivity series based on their displacement reactions know the order of reactivity of these metals: potassium, sodium, lithium, calcium, magnesium, aluminium, zinc, iron, copper, silver, gold know the conditions under which iron rusts understand how the rusting of iron may be prevented understand the terms: oxidation reduction redox oxidising agent reducing agent The escape room is interactive. Students can move objects and click on them to reveal clues. No handouts are required but scrap paper is useful as some clues need to be written down and rearranged. There are gentle hints at the top of each page but students should click around the whole room to move or reveal clues. It is important clues are solved as they are required to pass to the next page. The escape room is a great end-of-topic task to check student´s understanding in a novel way. What is a digital escape room? Digital Escape rooms are an interactive activity which promote both individual learning and peer collaboration through problem solving. Each escape room has a range of activities to challenge the students whilst also covering the specification. This means they are an excellent resource to use as a revision tool. All of the activities are online, eliminating the need for printing materials. How does the escape room work? Students will be given a link to access the digital escape room. You do not need to provide an email address or have a google account to access the material. Escape rooms can be completed on laptops, tablets and mobile phones, so they can be set as homework or used in cover lessons. Starting the Task • Give students the link to the escape room (on next page) • Students can enjoy working through the challenges with a partner but they can be completed alone. • Students will need to look closely at the images. Some objects can be moved to reveal clues, other need to be clicked on. • There is a teacher answer sheet provided if you need to guide students.

Kinetic Theory Escape Room

(0)
The escape room is online and interactive, using the platform genially. No personal information is collected from the students. The questions throughout the game are based on a knowledge of the kinetic theory, with multiple choice questions and general knowledge. Students should have some knowledge of the points listed below (or access to their notes/textbook for research purposes. Specification points covered: Properties of solids, liquids and gases and particle models The effect of temperature and pressure on the volume of gases. Describe the changes of state in terms of melting, boiling, freezing, evaporation, condensation, and sublimation. Define the terms solute, solution, and solvent. Describe and explain the term diffusion and what factors speed up diffusion in gases. Icons on each page allow students to move through the story, or provide a clue. If students are stuck, they should try touching objects on the page as these can also hold clues. I have provided the answers to the password questions. The multiple-choice questions allow students to pass to the next stage. Please check out the video to see the type of clues.****
