Save the Planet: Reasons Support Points – 4th & 5th Grade
⭐ This 4th and 5th grade reasons support points escape room is a truly immersive experience. Students work their way through a post-apocalyptic Earth where humans destroyed the planet by collecting resources to help save it. In this escape room, students complete four unique challenges. Each challenge requires students to use standards-based reasons support points skills. Students will work on identifying the author’s main point and identifying and using evidence to support points. Students add their answers to the Planet Saver Decoder Tool to help them unlock the secret codes and complete each challenge. Students collect various items to ultimately earn an Earth Protector Certificate.
⭐ This reading comprehension escape room comes in digital and print formats.
- Webscape™ Format – This web-based format provides the most interactive and immersive experience possible. It is self-directed, self-correcting, and contains audio. You can check out my video overview here. You won’t believe how engaging this format is until you try it!
- Google Format – Students complete the exercises in Google Slides. The Planet Saver Decoder is a Google Sheet that self-corrects and tells each student when they can continue to the next challenge.
- Printable Format – Students can use any device to scan QR codes to watch the videos. If no device is available, students can skip the videos and still enjoy the exercise. Students use a printable Yeti Decoder and answer sheet to decipher the clues and track their answers.
⭐ Integrated videos, thematic items, and a storyline come together to engage students while developing and reviewing reading comprehension skills.
*Please note: The Google Slides format includes embedded videos that are hosted via YouTube. The printable version includes QR codes for these videos. If you plan on using the Google or printable formats, please ensure you and your students have access to YouTube. The Webscape version does not require YouTube.
