Combining ESL Puzzles to Create an Escape Room
Word puzzles have been shown to help develop vocabulary, problem-solving, spelling, critical thinking, grammar, and retention. They can also be a great method for keeping students engaged with the material. This training reviews the benefits of using puzzles in the classroom, what types of puzzles work, where to find them and how to build them, and examples of themes for ELA “Escape Rooms” and a PDF of an Escape Room teachers can download and use.
The presentation format includes a PowerPoint, handouts, and instructions for group reflection activities. These ideas will both benefit students, as well as reinforce the skills of teachers working within these challenges. The presentation covers the research basis, and the pedagogical reasons for bringing these types of activities into ELA classrooms, and provides concrete ways they can be implemented.
