This meticulously-crafted resource features all of the materials you need to conduct a full-length Chinese New Year-themed Escape Room. Planning an escape room may seem like quite the daunting task, but this product provides everything from the basics and set-up instructions to signs and answer keys so that yours runs smoothly from start to finish. The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. All tasks are Language Arts skills-based so that with this intrinsically engaging lesson, learning is not sacrificed. No prior knowledge is necessary to complete the activity; in fact, students will come away from it with a great understanding of China's biggest holiday of the year!

How does it work?

Your students must face their first major challenge of the new year and are stuck in your classroom until they solve 5 challenging Language Arts skills-based tasks about the Chinese New Year.

• Chinese New Year Fun Facts: In the first task, students will read 8 fun facts about how people celebrate the Lunar New Year. In each passage, students must identify the incorrect homophone and correct it.
• The Amazing Zodiac Race: In the second task, students must locate the incorrectly spelled word and correct it.
• Chinese New Year Stats: In the third task, using context cues, students must fill in the blanks in 8 statistics about the Lunar New Year.
• The Tyger: In the fourth task, students will perform a close reading of The Tyger by William Blake. Letters of the multiple choice question answers following the poem reveal their fourth code.
• Word Maze: In the final task, students must complete a word maze. Once students complete the task and bring their complete answer sheets to you, they may escape the room and start the Chinese New Year off on a strong note!
