How to make an Escape Room for class! // Design a Breakout Lesson Challenge for Biology Students

Make your own escape room for class! Are you a teacher looking to learn how to set up and run an escape room for your class? In this video, I'll show you how I made an escape room/breakout challenge for my high school biology students, what it looked like, and tips for creating your own escape room for school!
My escape room challenge is based on the topics of protein synthesis, but you can make a lesson plan like this based on many topics for your class.
2022 UPDATE: The form to request materials for the escape room is currently closed. Stay subscribed for future updates and resources!

    Thank you for your step-by-step tutorial. I am looking to set up an escape room for our middle school classes in prep for state testing. This would be a great way to get students engaged in the revising and editing section of our writing, since that is definitely the part that can be the least fun for students. Thank you for sparking ideas and how to set these up.

    This is great! Thank you for this tutorial! I am an elementary teacher and I wanted to create one for my students and this is perfect for me to start my activity.

    I really enjoyed the video- but I still have no idea how to create one- did I understand that you would share this particular escape room? If so I would like it, and what do I do to perform it if I was the student?

    I have been watching your videos lately and are very interesting! But I'm little confused that is microbiology major different from biology major? And how can I get the microbiology degree? Look forward from you soon

    Some colleges offer microbiology majors as well as biology major options. It is not as common though, so be sure to check at the schools you are interested in to see if it is an option. Microbiology majors will usually have some of the same general course requirements as biology majors, but they will take more courses on the study of microorganisms later in their college career. Hope that helps!

    Definitely! I had classes work in teams of 5-6 at times. It doesn't matter how many groups you have, as long as there aren't too many in each group so there is enough for everyone to do.

    @@LassetersLab but is it possible to do all those 40 students simultaneously? I think let's say 8 groups of 5 members each is too much in one escape room right?
