Students will read 4 short passages, then answer questions related to each passage. After correctly answering the questions, they will be given a “clue.” They will then decode 4 puzzles to help them determine the final lock code.
There are 4 sets of color-coded activities. For example, there is a BLUE 4 icon for a reading passage, a BLUE question mark for questions related to the BLUE reading passage and a BLUE controller icon for a puzzle related to the reading.
It is your responsibility to ensure the links will work prior to your purchase. Test these links first on a student account.

Classroom Compulsion –
I love using these simulations. Plan for them to take less time the more you use them, however, just because kids don’t need extra time to figure out how a particular puzzle works. It would be nice if they got switched up more between escape rooms, but I’m not complaining because the kids enjoyed it.
Stephanie Creazzo –
This was a fun activity. My students enjoyed it and it was a great review for mythology.

This digital escape room looked like it would be so much fun, but my students couldn’t access it. I went through all the “tests” and even submitted the link for approval (unblock) from our IT department. However, no matter what I did, the students couldn’t access it on their Chromebooks. Bummer…
