[ISLMA-Share] breakout edu

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

I did one the week before break with my 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. I have
only one box. I used the game for *Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library*
created by Amy Williams from the breakout.edu website. Of my 11 classes,
three did not "break out." They were not working together. All classes took
almost the entire class time to finish. I kept the classes from telling
each other clues by offering a prize to the class that broke out the
quickest. I gave that class some paperback copies of *Escape from Mr.
Lemoncello's Library* for their classroom library. It's hard not to give
the kids clues! I think that's the hardest part - giving just barely enough
help to get them over a hump without giving too much away.

Our first week back, the kids are all asking when we're going to do it
again!
