Escape the Alien Ecosystem! (An Ecology Escape Room Activity)
Embark on a Thrilling Eco-Adventure to Escape an Alien Planet!
Prepare for an epic journey as students find themselves trapped on an alien world by the sinister Dr. Znorgberg and his radioactive rocket. To break free, they must harness all the ecology investigation skills they've mastered in this chapter. Time is of the essence! The countdown to Dr. Znorgberg's nefarious Big Bad Pollution Bazooka is underway.
This ecology review activity is not just challenging but also a ton of fun! It brings the "escape the room" phenomenon to the virtual classroom. The only supplies needed are devices and green and yellow markers or colored pencils. Ideally placed at the conclusion of your ecology unit, this adventure requires students to employ their knowledge and skills in:
Distinguishing abiotic and biotic factors
Navigating a dichotomous key
Utilizing ecology vocabulary
Identifying beneficiaries in symbiotic relationships
Deciphering ecology graphs
The Journey Awaits:
Station One: Students must distinguish between biotic and abiotic factors to unveil hidden Braille letters. These letters, when translated into English, reveal the first pieces of the escape code.
Station Two: The power of deduction comes into play as students use a dichotomous key to unlock another part of the escape code.
Station Three: Prepare for a challenging WORDLE-style puzzle featuring ecology vocabulary. With each correct entry, students receive clues about which boxes should be yellow (correct letter, wrong spot) and which should be green (correct letter, correct spot). After six attempts, they'll have all the clues needed to unlock the escape code.
Station Four: Students analyze symbiotic relationships to determine who benefits and who is harmed. Applying their findings to a table yields the next part of the escape code.
Station Five: Decode ecology graphs to extract missing terms. As these terms are placed into an acrostic poem-style table, the final piece of the escape code is revealed.
Don't miss this chance to transform your ecology unit into an unforgettable adventure. Get ready for a heart-pounding, mind-teasing eco-quest that will have students on the edge of their seats! Will they escape their interstellar entrapment in time?
This file includes a teacher key. Please remind your students that their codes will have to be in all capital letters without spaces, or else they won't be able to escape!
