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

IQ Test (teaching students to follow directions)
This is a fake test that simply asks students to read ALL questions before answering anything. The final question asks them to turn in the paper for 10 extra credit points if there is no writing or erase marks on the paper. There are questions such as: "write your middle name", or "solve for X when 4 - X = 2". Can be easily modified for any grade level. It is a fantastic way to remind students of the importance of following directions. Works for high schoolers and adults, too!I remember my
