Escape Tradition

Help me give my students TPT, two way radio and locks for escape rooms. They are easily bored so I want to mix it up. I also want to give them snacks as prizes for being engaged.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Hammonds's classroom raised $614

My Students

My students are resilient , despite being thrust into digital learning last year. They came back this year ready to learn. They made no excuses about gaps in learning or what they missed. They are a wild and fun bunch who make teaching worth it. Most students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

My Project

Traditional lesson include paper and pencil practice. They are bored with this and we've only been in school 3 weeks. Students were thrust into digital learning during the pandemic and now they don't want to use their devices. I want to add some fun digital lessons that will engage them and allow them to use their devices. If we have to go back to digital learning, students can engage in these activities from home. They will be more likely to sign into class and participate. Help make digital learning fun. They like participating in escape rooms, even if they are about Algebra. They are very competitive and work hard to win prizes.
