Sentence Types Escape Room - Sentence Structure Grammar Breakout Activity Game: Engage your students with this interactive Sentence Types Escape Room Breakout Activity! Students will demonstrate their understanding of sentence structures by visiting stations and completing puzzles and challenges related to the following types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. This escape room can be set up in a traditional format with classroom stations, or it can be used as a daily bell-ringer challenge. In the bell-ringer option, students work with their group for the first 5-10 minutes of class from Monday to Friday, progressively getting closer to escaping by the end of the week.

Escape Scenario: In this medieval escape room, participants step into the shoes of a minor lord's son trapped in a dungeon by the double-dealing Chancellor Doran during a time of political turmoil. Discovering the Chancellor's treachery, players must navigate puzzles left by the former dungeon keeper to secure their escape, using keys found in the chamber. With the fate of their fiefdom uncertain outside, they must unravel the clues swiftly to break free before it's too late.

How This Sentence Types Escape Room Activity Works:

Students will collaborate in small groups and rotate among five stations set up in the classroom, engaging in puzzles and activities focused on different types of sentences: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. The objective of the escape room is to successfully complete tasks at each station and collect various mystery codes related to sentence structures. Alternatively, the activity can be structured as a bell-ringer, with students tackling one station daily, gradually working towards their escape by the end of the week. Below are the tasks students will complete:

The Key Ring - Counting Sentence Types: Students read a report on politics and must determine how many examples of simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences are used. With this information, they'll be able to choose the correct key to escape the first chamber of the dungeon.
Alphabetic Lock - Sentence Type Mystery Phrase: Students must read four passages labeled with a sentence type. They must count the instances of the sentence type on that card and use that number to skip to a word within the text. These words together form a passphrase they need to escape this chamber.
The Levers - Sentence Types Hidden Words: Students will decipher the correct order to pull levers by analyzing passages and identifying sentence types. They will use a template with small cut-out holes that overlay the text, revealing hidden words on the cards underneath.
The Chain Links - Organzing Sentence Types: Students will arrange cards into a grid based on their sentence types. Once correctly organized, a color will emerge, allowing them to match it with a corresponding sentence type to break the chain link.
Numerical Lock - Sentence Types Match Up: In this concluding task, students will pair sentences with their corresponding sentence types and count the teeth on skulls featured on puzzle pieces to uncover a hidden code for their escape from the medieval dungeon.

Before beginning this escape room, students should have a solid understanding of the following sentence types: simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex.
