By the end of the school year, getting students excited about math review can be a challenge. At this point, everyone is thinking about summer break, and pulling out another worksheet packet usually isn’t the answer.
One thing that always helps in my classroom is turning review into a game.
This digital math escape room has students solving problems, cracking secret codes, and trying to escape the last day of school before ending up with summer school, a giant summer packet, or a trip to the principal’s office. The storyline alone gets them hooked right away.
Students review skills like:
Addition & subtraction
Multiplication & division
Fractions
And because it’s completely digital, it’s really easy to use during those busy last weeks of school. I like using it for:
End-of-year review
Math centers
Early finishers
Small groups
The best part is that students genuinely feel like they’re playing a game while still practicing important math skills.
There are versions available for grades 3–6, making it easy to match the activity to your students’ needs during those final weeks of school. ☀️
