🔑 Escape Room Challenge
Students read a 1100+ word article about escape rooms — their history, psychology and strategies. Vocabulary words are highlighted in the reading text. The article features psychologist Dr. Nina Kovac on group behaviour under pressure, 16-year-old Kai from Berlin who has completed 30+ rooms, and escape room designer Sofia Reyes from Madrid sharing insider tips. Grammar covers modal verbs for advice (should/shouldn't), obligation (must/have to), prohibition (mustn't), and lack of obligation (don't have to), with special focus on the key difference between mustn't (forbidden) and don't have to (not necessary). The interactive game presents 10 escape room scenarios where students choose the correct modal verb. The writing task asks students to design their own escape room rules or describe a problem-solving experience.
