Today Room 4 completed their first ever Breakout! A Breakout is a problem solving game where learners have to solve a series of clues to escape from a room or open a box. Our first Breakout was digital, which meant that we worked in teams of four or five to solve clues on a Google site.
We were given an introductory Breakout today so that we could get the hang of how to play the game. Later on in the year we will complete Breakouts that are linked to what we are learning.
All of the groups worked well together and everyone made a lot of progress. Hazel's group was the first to Breakout, so they were able to unlock the box and claim their prize. Seconds later Tidus' group broke out and received a prize as well. Then Makayla's group came in at third place.
The other groups were very close to Breaking out but they did not make it before the timer. However, everyone did really well for their first time and they will be more experienced next time they play.
Hey room 4
ReplyDeleteWow that sounds and looks very fun I think that my class should try it out. I really enjoyed your photos and thought that they were are a nice touch to your post but maybe next time you could link the sites you used so other learners like me are able to try it out too.
Keep up the fantastic work!
