Breakout edu
On January 18th, our group went to Mrs. Oliver's room to present our breakout box. It was a very cold morning and we had a very good time. The kids were very excited when we presented it to them. Mrs. Oliver told us that this was the best her students have behaved. We were very glad that we were able to provide the students with a fun activity that they could enjoy while also learning! This breakout activity was held in the old cafeteria, which is now a Kindergarten room. While the boys waited in Mrs. Oliver's room, the group walked the girls down to the kindergarten room to do the activity. When the girls were finished, the group walked them back, and took the boys to the kindergarten room to complete the activity. The boys finished 30 seconds faster than the girls and won the activity! We took the boys back to Mrs. Oliver's room and told her how good her students did! This breakout box was a huge success! We did our fourth breakout box only a couple of days after this one. Our Fourth Breakout! We did our fourth breakout box on January 29th. This time, it was with Mrs. Rush's fourth grade class. We held this breakout in the little theater. We started with the girls going to the do the activity. They completed it in thirteen minutes. When we brought the girls back to Mrs. Rush's room, we started to do this activity with the boys, and we had to bring them back to Mrs. Rush's room because there was a fire drill right when we started the activity. When we got back inside, we finished the activity with the boys. They finished the activity in ten minutes. That's the fastest time we've had a group complete the breakout box! Now that we've presented the breakout box to a lot of teachers, we're planning on making a new breakout box soon with a different theme and a different set of questions so that we can present it to the same classes as well as new classes. Our first Spongebob themed breakout box was a success!

On Wednesday, January 9th, the group went to New Palestine Elementary. Mrs. Purciful was kind enough to allow her 4th graders to participate in this activity. To complete this activity, we took her students and separated them into two teams. One team came in the room with us to do the activity, while the other team stayed in Mrs. Purciful's room with her. The first team completed the activity in 17 minutes, and the second group completed it in 13 minutes. The students really loved the activity, and we enjoyed working with them. The team who got the lower time received 2 suckers, while the other team received one. This was a really fun project, and we are going to continue to do this project as long as we can. We have later dates set up with different teachers already. All we have to do is adjust some of the problems from a 4th grade level to a 3rd grade level. We will continue to make adjustments to the activity, improving it with each time we present it. Below are the pictures of the fourth graders completing the activity. Second Breakout Activity! On Wednesday, January 16th, the group went back to the same elementary school that we went to the week before. This time, we presented the project to a group of third graders. We made a couple of the clues a little bit easier than the ones for the fourth graders. The third graders had a ton of fun, and Mrs. Canada was very glad that we were able to show up to her class and present this activity. This time, instead of the winning team receiving two suckers, they received 5 extra minutes of recess. This time, Mrs. Canada wanted to do a boys vs. girls competition, and the girls won by a couple of seconds. Below are the pictures from today's activities. We would like to thank Mrs. Canada and NPE for letting us present this activity to them! It was a very fun experience, and the students really enjoyed it. |
