Description

Cure student boredom with an interactive DIGITAL Declaration of Independence Trivia Escape Room! The DIGITAL Escape Room is a winning combination of trivia and critical thinking, that requires NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE! A fascinating NO-PREP, self-checking digital activity with a twist of FUN that covers the Declaration of Independence and the Revolutionary War.

 

The whole activity is housed on ONE website, making this a cinch to share and play! No outside links and no accounts or login required!

 

As students progress through the “amusement park” themed digital escape room, they will visit 9 attractions with a total of 35 questions. This trivia escape is ideal for igniting critical thinking and deductive reasoning skills, while gaining or reviewing knowledge on the topic.

 

Please test this link on a STUDENT DEVICE to ensure the site is not blocked by your district:

IF YOU GET A 404 ERROR THAT MEANS YOUR SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS BLOCKED THE WEBSITE. PLEASE REACH OUT TO YOUR TECH PERSON OR EMAIL YOUR DISTRICT WITH THE LINK ASKING FOR PERMISSION.

 

No grading involved! This is a self-checking activity with an “answer bank” for each challenge that offers immediate student feedback. The questions are set with “answer validation,” therefore, students cannot move on to the next challenge until they answer the questions correctly. If you are using the activity for front loading and they have no prior knowledge, they will still be able to play! Students will use deductive reasoning as well as trial and error to figure out the correct answer because each challenge includes some sort of answer bank (drag and drop, drop-down menu, click and disappear etc). Please note: You will not be able to collect scores or data since this is a self-checking, view-only, digital activity.

 

How will they know the answers if they don’t have prior knowledge?

Some of the answers are NOT common knowledge, but don’t stress! There are only so many possible answer combinations, and some sort of “bank” is provided for every “ride.” Each answer bank includes just a few ‘possible’ answers per question, so if they get it wrong, they can just try a new answer. Example: In what year did George Washington accept an assignment to lead the Continental Army? Now, this may not be common knowledge but the “answer bank” has the following answers to choose from: 1745, 1775. Should they get the answer wrong the first time, they can guess again. Therefore, the question themselves are puzzles. In some cases, they’ll need to use deductive reasoning to determine which answer they need to change.

1 review for Declaration of Independence Digital Trivia Escape Room – Revolutionary War

  1. Lisa

    We just completed this escape room for our homeschool lesson on the Declaration of Independence and my kids (1st and 4th grade) really liked it! Our lesson didn’t cover all of the questions that were asked in the activity, but it gave us a fun way to look up more about the history of the Declaration as we worked to escape. I would definitely recommend this resource even if you just use it as a reinforcer for your kids to complete after they complete a regular lesson of a homeschool curriculum.
