Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 21

Students enjoy using the Breakout Boxes in the classroom. These are used to allow for groups to work together to solve complex tasks to review different concepts that we have learned. The online digital platform has been a highlight this year, they love to work with each other and use the strengths of their group members. I love to see the students work together to solve the clues and the cheering in the classroom showing success.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

We would like to challenge our students to use critical thinking skills and effectively communicate with each other in a fun and interactive way. 

 

What will be done with my students

Breakout EDU boxes allow teachers to use preexisting lessons, or create new mysteries to solve, in all subject areas. Students, in small groups, will be challenged with trying to solve a variety of clues that will unlock a series of locks attached to a box. Inside will reveal the mystery they have worked so hard to solve. This activity usually ranges from about 15-30 minutes and can be the introduction to a lesson to add excitement to a learning goal or can be the culmination of a lesson to test their knowledge of what was learned.  

 

Benefits to my students

The benefit of this breakout box and digital platform will allow students to feel a sense of community as the mystery is revealed, an awareness of the importance of group communication, the value of each team member's role in a group, the critical thinking skills needed to solve clues and eliminate incorrect theories, and a love and excitement for learning.
