What Teachers Are Saying

Real feedback from IM® educators using Escape Rooms in their classrooms.

This Escape Room was an excellent and highly engaging way to review Grade 4 Illustrative Math concepts from past Units. My students absolutely loved the theme and the puzzle-based format, and it kept them motivated and focused the entire time. The challenges were rigorous but very solvable. Students had to truly think, collaborate, and persevere rather than rush through problems.

My students really enjoyed this escape room and it really reinforced the standards of the first three IM units. This is a fantastic curriculum-paired activity that had students excited to do math. I also love that there is a print version as well, so that chromebooks are not necessary unless you want to do the digital version. Amazing resource!

This Grade 4 Math Escape Room is fantastic! My students loved the holiday theme and were fully engaged in solving the challenges. It's well-designed, aligned with the Units, and encourages collaboration, critical thinking, and problem-solving. A perfect way to make math review exciting and meaningful. Highly recommend!

We saved this as a "before break" activity. My students had also earned a free period as a reward. They just voted to move the free period to a different day so that they could keep working on the escape room! Amazing!
