An escape room for KS3 Spanish students based on the topic of furniture and prepositions.
Students will need to have learnt the items of bedroom furniture and prepositions and can use this lesson as revision.
The aim is for students to choose the correct answers and put the codes into the 3 locks to escape the room. Usually this would be delivered on the computer in an ICT style lesson. However due to covid-19 this document has been adapted for individual home learning.
Includes translations into Spanish and into English plus a FAR written piece.
All instructions are included on the sheet and can be set via online learning platforms.
Solutions also provided.
