Escape the Problem

Instructions

Create or use 3-4 linked puzzles where each answer unlocks the next — connected to your curriculum. Small groups race to solve all of them within a time limit. They must divide tasks, share findings, and work fast. Debrief: how did your group organize itself? Did you split up or work together?

Best used when

As a review activity at the end of a unit, or to energize a topic students find dry.

Variation

Each group member holds one clue they cannot show the others — they can only describe it.
