Digital Escape room - Modern Women

By Frenchified

Make learning about several modern international  women interesting with this no-prep digital escape game.  The game includes access to a website where your students will hunt for the keys to unlock a set of locks.  Students will need to read the clues very carefully and watch videos, visit websites, and read texts to find the information they need to win the game.  Very easy to use - just send your students to the website and let them work!  Students can play individually or in teams.

Digital escape games are a fun way to start a unit, or to review at the end of a unit.  They can also be used to learn about a cultural or historical event.  This game will have your students reading carefully and paying attention to the smallest details in order to complete the challenge and unlock the locks.  

This item includes:

  • Access to a website where your students can play the game
  • Complete teacher's guide to playing the game
  • Answer key so you can help students if they get stuck!

Your students will enjoy learning without even realizing that they are learning!  The challenging game format will get them excited about finding the code to unlock each lock - and the format of the clues for each lock will have them paying close attention - there's no way to solve the puzzles  without being 100% focused! 

Topics in this game include:

  • Malala Yousafzai
  • Angela Merkel
  • Valentina Tereshkova
  • Katherine Freese
  • Queen Elizabeth II

Prep is very easy - you just need to share the website URL with your students.  You may want to test the site before you use it, just to make sure nothing is blocked by your district.  As some of the clues can be challenging to unlock, you may choose to help your students with the trickier ones.  With the teacher guide, you will have the answer key - so you can help guide students towards the correct answer by giving them hints, or if you have limited time, you can adjust the game by reducing the number of locks they need to unlock - just give them the answer(s) to help the activity fit your time constraints.

*******************************

Lately, upsetting things have been happening in the world and our students are very much aware of them. Tens of thousands of people have protested on the streets to make their voices heard about all kinds of issues that students care about including racism, inequality, policing, discrimination, etc. Protests have spread across the nation and seem to rival the historic demonstrations of the Civil Rights Movement. It is important for us to bring these topics into our classrooms—because students want to be part of the conversation and share their thoughts and feelings about the very issues that affect them.

This resource features 48 Protest questions that can be used as writing prompts, discussion/debate questions, or both! These questions encourage students to think deeply about protests, the root causes of them, their experiences with them, the effectiveness of them, how they compare to the protests of the past - AND SO MUCH MORE! These questions can spark some deep conversations among students. Without a doubt, these questions give students an opportunity to share their feelings and thoughts about the protests they have been witnessing.

These Protest Writing or Discussion Prompt Questions would make an AMAZING supplement to any lesson and can be used in a variety of ways.

The Break Down:

✅ 48 Protest Question TASK CARDS (Color / BW)

These Protest Writing/Discussion Question Task Cards can be used as part of a larger lesson, in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! You can organize them in a binder ring.

✅ 48 Protest Question Worksheets (same questions in the Task Cards)

This resource also includes 48 Protest Writing/Discussion Question WORKSHEETS with lines, so students can write their responses. Each worksheet contains a question about protest (the same questions in the Task Cards). It's a great opportunity for students to reflect about their own perspectives of protests and share their feelings about them. These Worksheets are included in PDF and GOOGLE SLIDES versions! Text boxes have already been added to make it easier for you and your students!

These worksheets are great for “Quick Writes,” Do Now activities, Note-Taking/Reflection periods, Formative Assessments, or can simply be used as part of a larger lesson or discussion!

✅ 48 Protest Writing/Discussion Question Strips

These sentence question strips are beautifully created and feature the same protest questions in the task cards and worksheets. They can be cut, distributed, and/or be used in many ways including distributing one or two to each student to think about, share their thinking and perspectives with a partner, randomly choose a strip to answer, etc.

✅ LIST of Protest Questions
Also included is a 2.5-page LIST OF PROTEST QUESTIONS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select questions to work with. It’s like an overview page of the protest questions listed in the Task Cards, Worksheets, and Strips.

Lesson plans are not included. These Protest Writing/Discussion Question Task Cards and Worksheets can be used as a supplement to your own lesson plans and in such a way that best meets the needs of your students.

Spanish Back To School Authentic Listening Comprehension Activity

By Specialty Spanish

Authentic listening activities with comprehensible input for Spanish class can be so hard to find!  We want our students to practice their listening skills but we don’t want to spend an hour searching for a good video!  This YouTube video is about 5 tips for starting a new school year.  A young person gives us 5 ideas about how to have a successful start to the year. This activity makes a great way to dive back into Spanish at the beginning of the year!

To check comprehension, students will answer questions as they watch, either in open-ended format or via an Edpuzzle with self-correcting multiple choice questions. Students will answer basic comprehension questions as well as personal response questions to help them make connections to their own lives.   An answer key is also included!

Are your students interested in fall-themed activities?  Maybe this bundle is right for you!  It includes group writing challenges, speaking or writing task cards and this listening activity-all with a fall theme! 

Spanish Fall-Themed Activities Bundle

Who can use this product?

  • Spanish students in Year 2 or 3 and up  (It depends on when students started learning Spanish and where their proficiency level is in listening comprehension.)

Digital escape games are a fun way to start a unit, or to review at the end of a unit.  They can also be used to learn about a cultural or historical event.  This game will have your students reading carefully and paying attention to the smallest details in order to complete the challenge and unlock the locks.  

This item includes:

  • Access to a website where your students can play the game
  • Complete teacher's guide to playing the game
  • Answer key so you can help students if they get stuck!

Your students will enjoy learning without even realizing that they are learning!  The challenging game format will get them excited about finding the code to unlock each lock - and the format of the clues for each lock will have them paying close attention - there's no way to solve the puzzles  without being 100% focused!

The included topics are:

  • The domino theory
  • The space race
  • The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan
  • The Cuban missile crisis
  • The fall of the Berlin wall

Prep is very easy - you just need to share the website URL with your students.  You may want to test the site before you use it, just to make sure nothing is blocked by your district.  As some of the clues can be challenging to unlock, you may choose to help your students with the trickier ones.  With the teacher guide, you will have the answer key - so you can help guide students towards the correct answer by giving them hints, or if you have limited time you can adjust the game by reducing the number of locks they need to unlock - just give them the answer(s) to help the activity fit your time constraints.

Lately, upsetting things have been happening in the world and our students are very much aware of them. Tens of thousands of people have protested on the streets to make their voices heard about all kinds of issues that students care about including racism, inequality, policing, discrimination, etc. Protests have spread across the nation and seem to rival the historic demonstrations of the Civil Rights Movement. It is important for us to bring these topics into our classrooms—because students want to be part of the conversation and share their thoughts and feelings about the very issues that affect them.
