Class Experience

US Grade 3 - 6
Get ready to experience a unique adventure in the Scatter Brain Escape Room. Instead of breaking out, you will be breaking in to recover treasures (brain parts) taken by some sneaky animals. 

Is Dr. Rennad a brilliant scientist or a quack? She claims to have created the first fully functional artificial brain, and she wants to present her invention to the world. But her pets have sneaked into her laboratory and nabbed parts of the brain. These parts are scattered throughout a huge Victorian mansion. The scientist needs you to recover the pieces of the brain. Otherwise, her reputation will be ruined if she cannot produce her invention as promised.

Can you help the doctor recover all the parts of the brain and tell her which animals took them? 

You will use your brain to solve logic puzzles and brain teasers. As you recover the parts of the brain, you will learn brain anatomy and function. 

I strongly suggest that participants use a computer, laptop, or tablet. While the participants can use a smartphone, some of the graphics will be difficult to see, as many of the puzzles are text-based.

I will provide clues and assist with site navigation as needed. 

The class time will be extended as needed to allow all students to complete the tasks. I do not schedule a class immediately after this one. Of course, I understand if a student has another class afterward, but I suggest giving at least a 15-minute grace period to complete this class.
Learning Goals
Students will learn about the major parts of the brain while completing logic puzzles and brain teasers.

My education and teaching experience are in biological science, behavioral science, and language arts. I love teaching about the brain because it is a fascinating mystery, and scientists are always discovering new information. I want to instill a love for knowledge in my students and empower them to learn creativity, using their unique gifts and learning styles. I enjoy building their confidence, inspiring their curiosity, and empowering them to take ownership of their learning journey.
