Customizable Romeo and Juliet Breakout / Escape Room Game

This breakout is intended to serve as a review of the content of Romeo and Juliet and should be completed when students have finished reading the play. There is also a section in the breakout about the life of William Shakespeare, which students do not need prior knowledge about. (You can choose to use this before finishing the play, but there are spoilers!)

You can use physical locks and a lock box or a digital Google Form with this game. The form is included with your purchase.

This purchase includes:
★ A detailed document outlining each clue card, setup, and running the game
★ An answer sheet for students
★ An editable Google Slides document for all of the clue cards
★ A digital breakout Google Form that is set to accept the correct answers for this game

Notes:
★ Breakout games involve additional setup such as printing clues, color coding clues (if you let students work in teams), and in some cases writing on supplemental files with invisible ink
★ Supplies needed for this game include invisible ink pens, black light flashlights, and QR Readers
★ If you purchase this breakout and are not able to get all of the supplies, please get in touch with me. I can help you create alternate ways to present the clue to students if needed.
★ Most of these games involve clues that have a uniform answer, regardless of where the game is played. However, some games involve numbers such as pages in a dictionary or atlas. In these cases, the explanation document will tell you that you need to customize the answer based on your resources.
★ Please try the game at least one day before you would like to try it with your students and get in touch with me if you have any questions. I usually respond to emails within a few hours. Try it out beforehand to ensure that you completely understand how each clue can be solved.
