The Escape Rooms will take students on TEN separate secret missions around the classroom! The escape rooms have students decode facts about the Declaration of Independence, the US Constitution, Causes of the Revolutionary War, The Bill of Rights, Founding Fathers, Women in History, Branches of Government, MLK, Civil War and the Underground Railroad.
Escape Rooms have students walking around the classroom breaking codes. Students are given a secret code name and sent on a secret mission to solve the clues in less than an hour (You decide the amount of time!) Code names and secret missions are different in every escape room! The codes include ciphers, Morse code, cryptograms and a final 4 digit lock combination based on the four decoders/clues.
Each clue and code is different. The codes require students to think differently to decipher or decode them. Some codes are easier than others. Some codes require critical thinking to determine what a letter/symbol stands for. Each code will reveal a fact about U.S. History. For example, students will learn the number of amendments and articles in the Constitution, analyze excerpts from the Declaration of Independence, gain an overview of the amendments in the Bill of Rights or learn about the Boston Tea Party. They will learn about historical women and their impact on the world as well as the basic jobs of the branches of government. Lastly, students will learn about the contributions of MLK and why the Civil War was fought.
The use of secret code will keep your students engaged while competing to find the final lock combination. No props needed!! Students can report the final lock combination to you. If you wanted to, you could purchase a 4 digit lock that you program, but it is not necessary at all!
The best age range for this resource is 8+. Please look at the preview to determine if this resource works for your age group. Younger students may need some help with some of the more difficult codes. The Declaration of Independence is of higher difficulty than the rest...CHALLENGE your students!
You can use the pre-labeled clues or you can challenge older kids to choose/find the decoder that works for each of the clues. A set of labeled and non-labeled decoders are included with each escape room.
An answer key and teacher directions are provided for each escape room.
Time needed: 30-60 minutes/escape room
