Breakout boxes are very fun and an interesting way to engage students in their own learning. This project will give students the opportunity to feel successful by using reading as a tool enabling problem solving.
Students use critical thinking skills, reading and collaborative team work to solve a series of tasks before being able to unlock the box. The amazing part is that the boxes can be used with any subject/academic material including books such as Pete the Cat. These lessons are available through the online program resources. Reading is a difficult subject to teach and my hope is to challenge my students with the breakout boxes so they can develop as readers. I feel that the break boxes are innovative and creative way to teach reading. Students will look forward to the challenge as they collaborate with their peers.
