Division Game CSI Digital Math Mystery Activity - Escape Room Resource

Division CSI Digital Math Mystery GAME with lots of graphics and a computer game-like experience. Your students can play the Case of The Divided Dragons in a digital game format (please note that this is a different format to the Google Slides, see trial below). This resource is designed to be played on any device with an Internet connection (please read the technical tips section and try the free clue below to see if it works for you).

Mystery meets an escape room with this style of game. Your students will need to discover passwords at the end of each clue in order to access the next clue. Your Teacher copy will contain all links and passwords.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Implementation Suggestion: Turn it into a competition to see who can solve the mystery first in your classroom OR set a timer with a limit that everyone must aim to beat to solve the case (or single clue if you prefer to break it up into smaller chunks).
