Halloween Music Escape Room

Are you looking for a fun and interactive way for your students to practice musical concepts? This Halloween Music Escape Room set includes materials for an escape room to practice rhythm, melody, and more! Students will work in small groups to solve puzzles, earn letters, and unscramble the letters to form a musical word, then escape the room!

Save time and overwhelm by purchasing this set. Simply print the resources, gather materials, and get ready to have fun this October!

The tasks in this Halloween Music Escape Room include:

• Task 1, Rhythm Code: Students code Halloween words to rhythms using a key, then open an envelope to get a clue to figure out their letter. Three versions are included: one for rest, one for tika-tika, and one for tika-ti.
• Task 2, Rhythm Quiz: Students either complete a quiz about rhythm patterns with pencil and paper or through Google Forms on a Chromebook, computer, or iPad. If completing the paper, students check their answers with the teacher, then get the letter, and if completing the Google Form Quiz, students receive their letter when checking their answers. Three versions are included: one for ta and ti-ti, one for tika-tika, and one for tika-ti.
• Task 3, Solfa or Note Name Match Up: Students match the solfa patterns to the staff patterns, or the letter words to the notes on the treble clef staff. Many versions are included: sol-mi, la, do, re, low la, low sol, high do, fa, ti, lines on the treble clef staff, spaces on the treble clef staff, and lines and spaces on the treble clef staff.
• Task 4, "Spooky Symbols" Puzzle: Students improve their knowledge of musical symbols by either putting together a puzzle with cardstock pieces or through a website on a Chromebook, computer, or iPad. If completing the cardstock puzzle, students open an envelope for their clue, and if completing on a device, students go to another link to receive their letter.
• Task 5, Rhythm dice: Students roll the rhythm die (template is included to print out onto cardstock, fold, and tape) then write the rhythms they roll, read their rhythms, then get an envelope with their letter. Three versions are included: half note, tika-tika, and tika-ti.

The escape room set also includes:

• Signs to post at each task
• Link to video, which will set up the storyline about escaping the room.
• Directions for the set, including how to set up the lesson, possible additional purchases, things to keep in mind, and more!
• Editable files, including editable PowerPoints for escape room certificates, editing letters, typing directions, and more!
