Welcome To Mrs. Santiago's Black History Digital Escape Techroom
Are You Game?
What is a Digital Escape Classoom?
A Digital Escape Room or Breakout is a series of puzzles that you must solve in a specified amount of time to unlock various “locks” and reach an end goal. This game is designed to get you to think critically. That means that the answer will not always be readily apparent. Some clues are visible and obvious. Some clues are hidden. Some “clues” are only distractions.
Escape Room Rules & Tips
Your team should review the types of locks on the Google form so they know what kind of information they are looking for. For example, if one of the locks is a color lock, they are looking for a series or combination of colors somewhere in the clues. If there is a four-digit lock, then they are looking for a series of four numbers, such as a date, that might be the combination.
Remember communication and collaboration with teammates is key! It’s a good idea to discuss everything with the team- they might have a different way of thinking or approaching a puzzle that can be an asset to solving the puzzle.
The countdown clock will start as soon as your team chooses a famous person from below. Once you choose a person you may NOT exchange them for another.
Each team has ONE HINT CARD! When your team is stumped wave it high in the air and Mrs. Santiago will give your team a hint. Use it wisely because you only get one.
So Remember....
1. Look at the TYPES OF LOCKS you have to open first.
2. Write down ALL 4 lock answers on NOTES PAPER.
3. Lastly, fill in ALL parts of Google Form and SUBMIT!
Good Luck Friends!
