Help me give my students these hardware toolboxes, combination padlocks, and classroom supplies to be able to explore this amazing challenge “Breakout Out” of the classroom.
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Students
My students absolutely love hands-on, active, engaging projects and challenges that allow them to think outside the box to find solutions! Many students in my classroom come in saying they have difficulty completing practice assignments at home because of lack of supplies and resources. They just do not have the financial support and resources to be able to achieve their goals. They come to school each day ready to try new things and take brave chances to grow both personally and academically. Truly, they are my inspiration!
My Project
By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, but you will also ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
This type of breakout is a series of puzzles that students must solve in a specified amount of time to unlock various locks on a box to reach whatever is placed inside the box.
Unlike other "Escape Rooms" students are not trying to escape a physical location, they are instead trying to solve a series of puzzles to reach an end goal. A breakout can be done using a physical box and locks, in a virtual format, or a combination of the two. This type of activity builds classroom community as the students must work together either in partners or small groups to complete the task.
More than half of students from low‑income households
