The ONLINE Doctor Who escape room focuses on photosynthesis.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand the process of photosynthesis and its importance in the conversion of light energy to chemical energy
know the word equation and the balanced chemical symbol equation for
photosynthesis
understand how varying carbon dioxide concentration, light intensity and temperature affect the rate of photosynthesis
describe the structure of the leaf and explain how it is adapted for photosynthesis
understand that plants require mineral ions for growth, and that magnesium ions are needed for chlorophyll and nitrate ions are needed for amino acids
practical: investigate photosynthesis, showing the evolution of oxygen from a water plant, the production of starch and the requirements of light, carbon dioxide and chlorophyll
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.
The escape room focuses on the IGCSE specification. This means they are an excellent resource to use a revision tool. All the activities are online, eliminating the need for printing materials.
Students will be given a link to access the digital escape room. There is a timer included in the challenge but can be ignored as it has no effect on the outcome.
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.
Students enjoy working through the challenges with a partner but they can be completed alone.
Students will need to look closely at the images on the link. Once clicked, the image links to a clue or activity which needs to be completed in the lock form.
The lock form aids the student by providing direction as to which images to click.
Answers should be written in lowercase and no spaces between the numbers.
There is a teacher answer sheet provided if you need to guide students.
The ONLINE Scooby Doo escape room focuses on Biological Molecules.
It matches the A level Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand the importance of water as a solvent in transport, including its
dipole nature
know the difference between monosaccharides, disaccharides and
polysaccharides, including glycogen and starch (amylose and amylopectin)
be able to relate the structures of monosaccharides, disaccharides and
polysaccharides to their roles in providing and storing energy
Use a semi-quantitative method with Benedict’s reagent to estimate the
concentrations of reducing sugars
know how monosaccharides (glucose, fructose and galactose) join together to form disaccharides (maltose, sucrose and lactose) and polysaccharides (glycogen, amylose and amylopectin) through condensation reactions forming glycosidic bonds, and how these can be split through hydrolysis reactions
know how a triglyceride is synthesised by the formation of ester bonds during
condensation reactions between glycerol and three fatty acids
know the differences between saturated and unsaturated lipids

The ONLINE Murder Mystery Escape Room focuses on human excretion and the kidney.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
understand how the kidney carries out its roles of excretion and
osmoregulation
describe the structure of the urinary system, including the kidneys, ureters,
bladder and urethra
describe the structure of a nephron, including the Bowman’s capsule and
glomerulus, convoluted tubules, loop of Henle and collecting duct
describe ultrafiltration in the Bowman’s capsule and the composition of the
glomerular filtrate
understand how water is reabsorbed into the blood from the collecting duct
understand why selective reabsorption of glucose occurs at the proximal
convoluted tubule
describe the role of ADH in regulating the water content of the blood
understand that urine contains water, urea and ions

The ONLINE Scooby Doo escape room focuses on coordination and response.
It matches the IGCSE Edexcel specification but can be used with any specification focusing on the following specification points:
describe how nervous and hormonal communication control responses and
understand the differences between the two systems
understand that the central nervous system consists of the brain and spinal cord and is linked to sense organs by nerves
understand that stimulation of receptors in the sense organs sends electrical impulses along nerves into and out of the central nervous system, resulting in rapid responses
understand the role of neurotransmitters at synapses
describe the structure and functioning of a simple reflex arc illustrated by the
withdrawal of a finger from a hot object
describe the structure and function of the eye as a receptor
