Back to School Escape Room – Classroom Rules Activity

Description

Back to School Escape Room Activity :

Classroom rules are a fundamental part of class management and teacher sanity! Rules should not be too complicated, nor should there be too many. In fact, the simpler the rules, the better! The fewer they have to remember, the more they will remember them! I have researched and determined 4 universal classroom rules that can apply to any classroom, any subject and MOST grade levels. They include:

Listen and follow directions

Respect your classmates and teacher

Raise your hand before speaking

Keep hands and feet to yourself

The Back to School Escape Room will take students on a secret mission around the classroom! This escape room has students decode universal classroom rules. This resource is the perfect first day of school activity!

The Back to School Escape Room has students walking around the classroom breaking codes. Students are given a secret code name and sent on a secret mission to save the classroom. The codes include ciphers, Morse code, cryptograms and a final 4 digit code based on the decoders/clues.
