Description
The Greek Mythology DIGITAL Escape Room will take students on a secret mission through two 360° VIEW rooms! This escape room has students decode interesting facts about Ancient Greece, Greek Mythology, Greek Gods, Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Athena, and more. Drag the mouse or keypad to move the screen for a 360 view! All you have to do is share the link with your students!! It’s THAT easy! No prior knowledge is needed.
***STUDENT GOOGLE ACCOUNTS™ REQUIRED FOR USE***
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.

Some of the items where confusing. Also some of the links would not copy correctly so the students could complete them.
Lisa Fink –
Sounds like your district has a firewall in place on student devices. I checked the links and they work just fine 🙂

My students enjoyed this activity. It was challenging enough for them without them getting frustrated.
Julianne McLallen –
Great activity to supplement our Greek Mythology unit, but it requires a fairly high tech capability

My 6th graders thought this was a touch escape room. They got “lost” several times. There are many components to it.
Bernadette Gallegos –
They loved seeing this on the computer. My students were very interested.

I used this for a summer mythology course closing activity. The students got into breakout rooms and worked on it. It was nice for them to collaborate and work through a challenge together.
Sonny Jane’s Literature Units –
Good but they found challenging online – nothing to do with the resource but online learning
Heather Wright –
My students were engaged from start to finish – loved this resource!
Diana R. –
Used it in distance learning to engage grade 5/6 students. The package is great but could be a bit more user friendly for students. My students had some questions that required clarification. However, overall great concept!!!
