World War 1 Digital Escape Room

By Frenchified

Make learning about World War 1 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. 

Your great-grandfather has left you a medal from his time during the great war but you can't open the box it is in without figuring out the codes to several locks. Learn about World War 1 and open the locks to obtain the medal in this World War 1 digital escape game. This is a challenging activity that students will need to work together and think critically in order to complete.

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:

  • submarines
  • trench warfare
  • the assassination of Franz Ferdinand
  • the Armistice
  • the Treaty of Versailles

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.

Note: If you're not sure if this item will work on your school's computer system, please visit https://sites.google.com/view/joyeuxnoel to try out a free breakout.

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

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.

✅ 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.

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.

✅ 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.

  • An activity on labeling Canada.

In addition to the Slide Deck, you'll find a student workbook with loads of printable activities that are excellent to leave with a substitute teacher or to use yourself. It comes with a "cover page" for their binders or duo-tangs. In the student workbook, your students will find:

  • A jigsaw activity using Google Maps (group activity)
  • A visual aid that highlights different components of a map with examples.
  • "Comment utiliser une échelle?" - An activity to practice measuring distance using scale.
  • "Comment te rendre chez toi?" - A quick warm-up map-making activity for students to "draw" their way to school.
  • "Sais-tu utiliser une échelle?" - A series of distance-measuring activities using the provincial map of your choosing. I've included sheets for all Canadian provinces.
  • "Guide touristique de chez vous!" - An activity on finding and measuring distances between their favorite landmarks, amusement parks, shopping and activities in their province.
  • "Road Trip! Calculer le temps nécessaire" - An activity for students to calculate the time needed to travel (incorporates algebraic representation and uses the formula T = D/V).
