This digital punctuating dialogue grammar escape room style challenge is a new and fun way to engage your students and improve their understanding of punctuating dialogue rules! The detailed Google Slides presentation introduces punctuating dialogue rules with clear examples, ensuring student understanding from the start, and a pre or post-assessment self-grading Google Forms quiz allows you to assess student understanding effectively. The highlight of the resource is the engaging digital escape room-style challenge, where students read an original narrative back story where they must stop the animals from escaping the zoo. Then, they must collaborate in groups to crack a punctuating dialogue-related challenge to unlock a solution to stop the animals from getting out.
This is a Google-compatible resource and students complete all the work on the computer. This works well with distance learning, 1:1 classrooms, remote teaching, Google Classroom, Google Drive or for online education.
