Escape rooms are a great way to teach kids critical thinking skills combined with curriculum review and teamwork. It can make any boring classroom or environment thrilling and extremely interactive.
An escape room, when planned properly, is able to provide kids the opportunity to work in groups with their peers in a fun environment. This also helps the kids learn how to think critically. I give them a set of instructions and clues that they have to figure out in order to receive the next steps. I was able to do an escape room last semester with my kids and their reaction was priceless. They were fully engaged in the escape room with each other and excited to complete tasks and challenges. The biggest feedback I got after the event was that it would have been a better experience with more decorations and a stronger theme.
Last year when I completed this escape room with my classes I was amazed to see how even the kids who don’t typically stay engaged were fully invested with their team.
