Class Structure: Introduction and Warm-Up (5 minutes): We'll begin each session with a brief introduction to the day's escape room theme, a quick review of the math concepts involved, and some energizing warm-up activities to get the learners excited and ready for the challenge ahead. Math Escape Room Adventure (20 minutes): Participants will dive into the immersive escape room experience, working together to solve various math-related puzzles and challenges. Depending on the group size and dynamics, we'll either: - Share screen (smaller groups or to keep everyone together): Guide students through the escape room in the main Zoom room while they suggest solutions and work together in real-time. This allows for easy collaboration and monitoring of student engagement. - Use Breakout EDU rooms (larger groups or for a more interactive experience): Divide students into smaller groups, and send them to Breakout EDU rooms to work collaboratively on solving the escape room. As the teacher, I will continuously rotate between the groups, providing guidance, answering questions, and offering support as needed. Debrief and Wrap-Up (5 minutes): After completing the escape room, we'll spend a few minutes discussing the solutions, sharing insights, and reflecting on the teamwork and math strategies employed during the adventure. This time will also be used to distribute the "Math Escape Room Master Certificate" at the end of the final session.

Hello and welcome! My name is Ms. Alyssa, and I’m so excited to support your child’s learning journey on Outschool.
I’m a certified teacher with experience teaching across multiple grade levels and settings, including general education, special education, and small group instruction. My teaching approach focuses on making learning accessible, engaging, and meaningful for every student. I believe in meeting each learner where they are, celebrating their strengths, and helping them grow academically, socially, and emotionally.
In my classes, I prioritize hands-on learning, creative thinking, and building strong skills step-by-step. I design lessons that are fun, personalized, and filled with opportunities for students to feel successful and confident. My background in special education and mental health counseling also allows me to integrate important skills like emotional regulation, growth mindset, and self-advocacy naturally into the learning process.
Above all, I believe that students thrive when they feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. Whether we’re working on academic skills, exploring new topics, or building social-emotional growth, my goal is always to create a positive learning experience that sparks curiosity and confidence.
I look forward to learning and growing together!Reviews
