Help! You're Stuck in a Book is an escape room loaded with puzzles for students to learn about different genres of books in an engaging, and interactive way. Students must solve 11 clues to unlock the codes that will help them get back to their class. 
How does it work?
Students begin on a webpage with the scenario. They follow the directions and are then taken to the digital escape room. Students click the start button for the first lock and the first clue. There are eleven clues and locks in all, covering 10 different genres and one review page of all genres. The genres included are:

  • poetry
  • informational
  • biography
  • historical fiction
  • fantasy
  • mystery
  • traditional literature (fairy tales, folk tales, etc.)
  • realistic fiction
  • science fiction
  • autobiography

Clues include puzzles, codes, matching games, word searches, and more!

This escape room will probably take students approximately 60 minutes to complete, depending on student ability levels. However, because it has more clues than my other escape rooms, you may need to split it over 2 days. A time limit may be given, but this can cause stress so determine what is best for your class. Some of the benefits of kids using these in teams are:

  • Develops teamwork and collaboration
  • Builds critical thinking skills
  • Promotes problem-solving skills
  • Promotes communication
  • Paperless and No Prep
  • Reinforces concepts
  • Engaging and fun!
