The fourth grade teachers will combine all of these items including hidden keys, secret codes and combinations, and appropriate puzzles or mystery items to help each team unlock their box. As teams progress through the challenge, they will use the initial challenge clues to lead them through the progression of puzzles to unlock the box. These activities will create ultra-engaging games for students to teach teamwork, problem solving, critical thinking and troubleshooting by presenting our students with challenges that ignite their natural drive to problem-solve. Pushing students beyond what they believe their limits to be is the first step in developing a world of creators, collaborators, critical thinkers, communicators...all while keeping the content relevant.
