Elements and Compounds Escape Room for Middle School

Finish and reinforce  a module of work on elements and compounds or revisit it prior to exams with this innovative, enjoyable and challenging escape room lesson which includes:

> atoms and molecules;

> elements and compounds;

> chemical symbols;

> formulae

> naming compounds.

Pupils have to work their way through the clues to find the code to a combination lock on the school exam paper store  in which the school secretary has been accidentally locked.

The pack contains:

> PowerPoint – scene setting and instructions (sound effects and built-in timer);

> crossword;

> word search;

> dominoes activity;

> worksheet;

> code breaker sheet;

> answer keys;

> lesson plan.

If time is limited just the crossword, word search and domino can be used. The worksheet is the most challenging clue to solve and this can be omitted completely for less able classes.

Both 3 and 4 number combination locks can be purchased very cheaply online or the teacher can pretend to phone the school office for the staff to attempt to release the librarian.
