This run-on sentences grammar escape room style challenge is a new and fun way to engage your students and improve their understanding of run-on sentences! The detailed presentation introduces run-on sentences with clear examples, ensuring student understanding from the start, and a pre or post-assessment quiz allows you to assess student understanding effectively. The highlight of the resource is the engaging escape room-style challenge, where students read an original narrative back story where they must find the missing Mona Lisa painting. Then, they must collaborate in groups to crack a run-on sentences-related challenge to unlock a solution to stop a thief from getting away with the famous piece of art!

Included in This Run On Sentences Escape Room Challenge Grammar Activity:
➡️ Run-On Sentences Pre-Assessment Quiz: Start by assigning this quick 10-question multiple-choice quiz to assess student understanding of run-on sentences. A detailed answer key is included for class review or grading. This can also be used as a post-assessment after the lesson if you prefer.
➡️ Run-On Sentences Grammar Presentation Slides: Use these PowerPoint presentation slides to guide the run-on sentences lesson and activity with instructional slides, activity prompts, the narrative story text, story conclusion slides, and answer keys for review.
➡️ Find the Stolen Mona Lisa Narrative Back Story: Next, students are ready to put what they have learned into action! They will begin the challenge by reading a short backstory that sets up the escape room challenge. As a night guard at the Louvre Museum, students are shocked when they discover the Mona Lisa has been stolen. They chase the thief but he escapes through the ventilation system, leaving them locked in a room. To trap the thief, students must reconnect the cables in a control panel using their knowledge of run-on sentences.
➡️ Run-On Sentences Mona Lisa Escape Room Style Challenge: In this interactive escape-room style run-on sentences challenge, students must sort sentences on cables into their correct locations based on if they are a run-on sentence or not. Once all cables are in the correct location, power will be restored!

What Teachers Are Saying About This Run On Sentences Escape Room Challenge Grammar Activity:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Truly engaging activity! I have used this in a few different ways. First, as the full activity, cutting paper strips and all! I have also used the printed quizzes separately from the activity.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This escape room had my students working harder than I could have imagined. They gave each other encouragement, offering suggestions (without giving away the answers) so that everyone was successful. I'm also seeing fewer run-on sentences in writing!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These escape challenges are detailed and engaging. The students enjoyed working on them while also reviewing/learning grammar. I own several products from this seller now and am happy with them all!
