FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Elliott's classroom raised $585

My Project

Students will be able to solve content puzzles in order to unlock the lockboxes for math, science, and reading. These activities include math problems, reading comprehension activities, and science STEM activities to move on to the next clue. The lockbox activities will allow resources to be accessed digitally and will help gather formative data about students' mastery of concepts.

Students will participate in an escape room activity that concludes with them unlocking their tool chests and enjoying the treats that are inside.

This project will provide the fun rewards that students will receive upon completion of the activity. Students will be able to use the pencils, erasers, and other learning tools throughout the year after completing each lockbox activity. Students love racing against each other to see which team can complete the activities correctly and quickly.
