Hey everyone, and welcome to my first video post! I know, I know, it's 2019 and I need to get with the times. I just have a hang-up about hearing my own voice on video, but I'm learning to power through those feelings and "do it scared". I wrote a post a while back about using my escape rooms with early childhood, but I've since realized that I could explain it even better with a video. Sound like something you would like to try with your class? Find all of my escape rooms here! I have them for so many different skills, holidays, and seasons, and I'm adding more all the time. They really are a fun way for kids to learn or review content. Here's what some teachers have had to say after using some of my escape rooms: "The kids wanted to play again!" --Carolyn P. "My students were so engaged and had so much fun doing this! --Miss Rieger "So fun! The students looked forward to the activity each day!!!" --Jennifer T. "Amazing! My students were so excited for each clue." --Rachel E. Still have questions about how this could work in your classroom? Drop me a comment or send me an email!
