Students will communicate with each other and collaborate to "escape" the room by solving the math puzzles. The locks for this project will allow me to create puzzles that students will need to solve. These puzzles will relate to a review math topic. My goals for this project is to create a lockbox for each group so that students will work together to review a math topic that could lead them to a 4-digit number to open the respective lock. For example, if we were reviewing probability, students could find the probability of an event to have an answer of 96.45%. The 9645 could be the 4-digit combination that will open the 4-digit lock.
More than half of students from low‑income households
