These escape rooms are a favorite in my classroom. The articles fit in perfectly with each topic, I loved the Constitution one for Constitution Day, but I loved having all the important documents with it.

My students love these escape rooms!!
Amanda Taylor Girardi –
Students love these ER’s, but once they tackled the first one the rest are easy, and students finish them quickly. Instead I assign one challenge per group. Worthwhile, detailed, and students are engaged and having fun!
Bobbi R. –
Good resource
Rebecca P. –
My class really enjoyed the challenge of these escape rooms. I like how everything is laid out and there are two levels of difficulty to allow for a variety of ages. Well done!
Kelly H. –
Awesome resource!!

THis was a great collection for the Constitution. My 8th grade history class was memorizing the preamble. We used the preamble exscape room as an exercise before exam week, they loved it.
