FAQ

• Do students need to have Gmail™ accounts? NO! Anyone with internet access and a tablet, computer, or even phone can complete the breakout.
• How long will these take? That is the hardest question as the answer varies depending on each classroom, student, or group. Most students will be able to complete each activity in around 45 minutes. You can allow 60 minutes to be safe. The form will not save student data (unless students are logged into Google™ accounts), so if you are worried about your students not finishing on time, simply have them write their answers on scratch paper. They can then come back and quickly re-enter their answers and pick up where they left off. Some students with a firm grasp on the concepts covered in this escape room will be able to complete the puzzles very quickly (20-30 minutes), others will take longer. *The dividing fractions escape room is a QUICK escape.
• Will students have to search the web to figure out the puzzles? NO! All of the information needed will be provided in the Google Form™. The math in this activity is all standards-based.
