Mission: Something is amiss at the Unusual Dinosaur Museum! You are trapped in an exhibit and must uncover the correct security codes to escape before the night crew starts and the museum dinosaurs come to life! Learners will work in teams to discover and decode the necessary codeword to escape the exhibit. This class will be immersive and require learners to work together to solve a special mystery by problem-solving and unlocking ciphers. There will be various activities from short readings and video clips, cryptograms, basic math, riddles, a crossword puzzle, and dinosaur trivia questions. Each activity will unlock special clues that will reveal answers to the mystery as they explore a 360 escape room and input their final message and finding before time expires. No previous knowledge of dinosaurs or the Jurassic Period is required for this escape room. However, this class is ideal to supplement learners who are interested in/or are studying those subjects. ****BIRTHDAY/PRIVATE EVENTS: If you are looking for a private event, please inquire about that with me directly.

Safety and privacy are our top priorities. Learners under 13 will need to have Parental Consent when accessing those links to comply with COPPA.
Students will be provided with a direct code to access the game link, and will bypass any registration or sign-ins for Thinklink as I have a Professional Teacher License through the service to use the platform as a teaching tool.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Greetings Outschool Family!
My name is Dwitney Bethel! I would describe myself as a vivacious and effervescent free spirit! I am originally from Nassau, Bahamas, but I consider myself a North American, as I spent nearly a decade in both the United States and Canada respectively. Although, of all of the places I have either lived or traveled through, my favorite is by far Japan! There is something timeless and magical about a place that embodies both the past and future at the same time.
I offer both private and public sessions! So if you are looking for afterschool programs, birthday games, or private sessions, feel free to message me with your inquiry.
In terms of my personal experiences, I have a background in History, Creative Writing, and Globalization Studies. I have a Bachelor of Honours in History and Development Studies, an M.A. in Public History, as well as an M.A. in Globalization Studies. I worked as a teaching assistant throughout my graduate studies, and mentored ESL students as well! I had always imagined myself teaching English abroad until I made the decision to become an entrepreneur and work for myself! I recently graduated from a Business and Entrepreneurship program, as I wanted to become a business owner and start my own company. My company offers team building games as well as heritage, tourism and cultural experiences, and that is what I hope to bring here! Therefore, I will offer an array of courses in the upcoming weeks from a very interdisciplinary perspective! I will bring gameshow style classes to traditional subjects such as history, global politics, geography, and anthropology.
I also hope to have some creative writing and book club combination courses dealing with subjects such as Immigration, Minority Studies and Feminine Identity using historical fiction for middle school and young adults. I will also feature some interactive escape room and thriller mystery games sets as well!
I was never a student who could fit into one discipline, as I just had a love and interest in almost everything! Interdisciplinary studies changed my life, and that is the approach I hope to bring here! I hope I can inspire hope, ignite the imagination, and instill a love of learning. Reviews
