Digital Download
This digital spelling grammar escape room style challenge is a new and fun way to engage your students and improve their understanding of spelling rules! The detailed Google Slides presentation introduces spelling 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 play the role of a magician who must escape a box at the bottom of a lake when their hidden key has gone missing. Then, they must collaborate in groups to crack a spelling-related challenge to be able to use the communication device to call for rescue.
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.

➡️ Spelling Pre-Assessment Google Forms Quiz: Start by assigning this quick 10-question self-grading multiple-choice Google Forms quiz to assess student understanding of spelling rules.

They will begin the challenge by reading a short backstory that sets up the escape room challenge. They have to quickly escape from the airtight box submerged in Lake Huron. Despite having a key hidden in their mouth, it breaks when they try to unlock the handcuffs. Now, they have to use a communication device to call for rescue, but first, they must pass a bot test. The test involves identifying misspelled words in a passage, correcting them, and using the corrected words as a password to gain access to the device.
➡️ Spelling Solve the Magician Digital Escape Room Style Challenge: In this interactive escape-room style spelling challenge, students must read a passage that includes a variety of spelling errors. Once they find them all, it will reveal the password they need to use the communication device to call for help.
