What is Included in this Digital Escape Room?
The adventure begins with a mysterious book – that includes this Table of Contents. Each of these stories are embedded in the Escape Room, along with non-fiction texts about Christmas in Australia and Hanukkah. Please note, the page numbers do NOT correspond to the Digital Escape Room, which includes 19 Sections of text, riddles, puzzles and comprehension questions.
The resource also includes supports to help you assign the Google Form and optional printables that can be useful as your students solve the Digital Escape Room.
This adventure allows students to make decisions. Each decision leads them down a new path, so they may not read each text – it all depends on the decisions they make! Students are generally so motivated by this type of choice that they want to go through the Escape Room more than once!

Why Use Digital Escape Rooms?
Digital Escape Rooms can be a terrific format for exposing students to a lot of text – both fiction and non-fiction. They are highly motivated to read so that they can solve the riddles and puzzles and make it through the adventure! This Escape Room includes both fiction and non-fiction. A fictional story runs through the adventure, and students encounter the fiction stories, non-fiction texts about Hanukkah and Christmas in Australia, and plenty of riddles, puzzles and comprehension questions.
In addition to motivating students, Digital Escape Rooms are such a time-saver for teachers! There is no prep for you, and you also get data about how your students did – without grading papers! I hate grading papers, so that’s a real plus in my book! For more about why Digital Escape Rooms are awesome for intermediate students, check out this blog post.
