End of the Year Escape Room - Escape to Summer Break Breakout Game Activity: This end of the year escape room activity is the perfect activity to wrap up the school year. The activity is a great way to get students up and moving together and makes for a positive way to end the school year! The resource includes everything you need to facilitate the activity in your classroom. Although it works especially well during the last weeks of school, this activity can be completed at any point in the school year.

Students will begin by reading a backstory that sets up the escape room. On the last day of school, students stumble upon “The Chrono Codex” in the library. They accidentally read a time-altering spell, causing the school day to freeze just before summer break begins! As the clock hands start to move backward, they realize they’re trapped in a time loop. Determined to escape, they discover that completing the six challenges at the end of the Codex is the key to breaking free before summer break slips away forever.

Included in this End of the Year Escape Room Activity:

➡️ Teacher Instructions: Use the detailed teacher instructions to help you set up the room and facilitate the escape room.

➡️ Escape Room Narrative Backstory: Introduce the activity with this highly-engaging one-page narrative backstory that sets up the escape room and hooks students into this end of the year escape room activity.

➡️ Student Instructions & Station Signs: Set up each of the six stations with signs to indicate the task number and type and student instructions written in the form of poems.

➡️ Escape Room Station Activities: The resource comes with all the materials students need to complete the activities at each station (riddle maze, concealed capitalization, trivia cipher wheel, pictogram activity, spelling quotes, encryption activity, organizational envelopes, and more!)

➡️ Student Answer Booklet: Have groups record their answers for each puzzle with the included student answer booklet. After completing all sections of the booklet, students will reveal the passphrase needed to reverse the spell and start their summer break!

➡️ Teacher Answer Key: Use the included detailed teacher answer keys that show how each station is completed successfully to check students’ work! This will help you determine a winner of this end of the year escape room and can also be used as a way to review each of the stations with students after the escape room is complete.
