"Amazing Race" End of the Year Scavenger Hunt
This is by far the funnest activity I did with my students all year! I wanted my fifth graders to be able to go all around the school on a "farewell tour" before moving on to middle school. It was also a great motivation for students to complete and turn in missing work. I happen to love the TV show "The Amazing Race," so I designed the whole activity around the items used on the show. Students are given clues that lead them to different teachers and staff members around the school until the

Included are 30 different bingo boards, directions and hints for playing the game, and a list of songs used in the game.

Bible Break out Box || using Parables!
This is the opposite of an Escape Room as you are breaking into a box. This religious game uses four parables - sower, talents, lost sheep and the good Samaritan. My kids have played these in school and they call it “break out boxes”. In my opinion, it should be called “break in” because you’re racing to break-in to the last box! There are four boxes total (one inside the others) and you have to figure out how to get into each one. You can have as many groups as you have materials for. If you h
