I have started playing (due to lockdown) with little concertina books and a hole punch. these are easy to make and fun to play with. The first one was a line of animals all eating each other, like the old lady who swallowed a fly. The second one below has turned out looking very worried, but it was, when I started it, a sort of Boo! book. Books for kids to sequence images and tell stories are great for education can be simple or complex and most importantly can be great fun.
As the end of the school year approaches, students can often start to wind up. Think “senioritis” when you were a high school senior, but bottle up that same excitement in smaller humans. Every spring, come May or June, even a superstar teacher with the most effective classroom management system in place can still suffer the wrath of (dun dun DUN) chatty class syndrome, or as I like to call it, “June Bug.” Even if something has worked all year long, you may feel the need to reach into your bag of tricks for a little extra reinforcement.

Holes Escape Room: Perfect for a final novel activity! Transform your classroom into Camp Green Lake as you send students on an adventure they’ll never forget- dig a hole, save a runaway camper, and climb God’s Thumb, all while reviewing plot elements and literary devices from Holes by Louis Sachar. This activity is formatted as an ESCAPE ROOM. Students will play the part of a Camp Green Lake camper and advance through five “days” of challenges in order to escape. The challenges are as follows: Day 1: DIG A HOLE - Students “dig a hole” in a piece of paper by deciphering a set of directions given to them by The Warden. The catch is that all team members must fit through the “hole”! Day 2: MYSTERY ARTIFACT - Students describe how certain similes from the book compare two things. If they answer correctly, they will decipher a code that will allow them to advance to Day 3. Day 3: DON’T BE BUZZARD FOOD! - Students must locate and record 9 different important quotations from the story. If they find them in context, they will be able to solve a puzzle that leads them to a lost camp member. Day 4: GOD’S THUMB – Students build “plot towers” using index cards and plot elements from the story. Complete directions and examples are given. Day 5: PALINDROMES – Students solve some common palindromes in order to open a treasure chest to gain their freedom. Also included in this resource to help you implement the escape room: - “Yellow-Spotted Lizard” classroom management system - Camper nickname ideas - Invitations to Camp Green Lake - Mystery artifact printables - Treasure chest printables
