An innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson which includes:
atoms and molecules;
- elements and compounds;
- chemical symbols;
- formulae
- naming compounds.
Pupils have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school exam paper store in which the school secretary has been accidentally locked.
A useful resource to finish a module on elements and compounds or for pre-test revision.
The pack contains:
- PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer);
- crossword;
- word search;
- dominoes activity;
- worksheet;
- code breaker sheet;
- answer keys;
- lesson plan.
If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes.
Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the staff to attempt to release the librarian.

Something went wrong, please try again later.
I also downloaded the resource but unfortunately the dominos were still incorrect and I cannot alter them.
This is great and my class loved it but there is a spelling mistake for Magnesium on the word search and the Dominos are not correct - if you lay them out correctly the word Seventy Two is not spelt out..... I tried to change it myself but you have password protected the file.
