Periodic Table of Elements Chemistry Escape Room

This unique and creative escape room makes LEARNING chemistry FUN!!!  This activity provides you with the opportunity to also include hands-on scientific inquiry-based challenges.  That’s right...more than just traditional questions and decoders. The escape room can be completed in less than an hour (remove stations as necessary).      

Topics include:

• Characteristics of the Periodic Table of Elements
• Atomic Theory
• Families & Periods
• Bohr-Rutherford Electron Dot Diagrams
• Atoms and Ions

This escape room has eight stations focused on the periodic table with a variety of engaging activities to accommodate and challenge different learning styles.  You can eliminate any stations you wish not to have your students complete or add more! 

Don’t have any escape room boxes and/or locks?  NO PROBLEM! I’ve also included in this package a ‘Google Form digital box and lock template’ you can use instead.  With a boxless method I suggest you store the station cards in envelopes!  

An additional (alternative) station has been provided should you decide to opt out of the station requiring lab chemicals.

What isn’t included here?

• Physical boxes and locks (digital ones are supplied if you want to go that route)
• Invisible marker and UV light (Station 2)
• 3 different metal chlorides (can substitute in metal nitrates or phosphates) (for station 2)
• Methanol or ethanol (station 2)

 *Note: There is an alternate station 2 should you not have access to the chemicals and/or invisible marker (UV light)

An instructions/guidelines sheet has been developed to help you set up the escape room.
