My students loved this activity and finished it in under an hour working in teams of 3. The link was blocked by our school firewall, so I would recommend testing it out from a student computer before class, so you have time for IT to give it permissions. We lost a bit of time waiting to get it working. Other than that it worked perfectly, except the answer key says the answer for lock 2 is 16/5 and this is not correct, should be 17/5 in the teacher copy. Thanks for an amazing resource!! – Susan P.

This was my saving grace while teaching the passé composé and imparfait. I struggled to teach it, and this digital escape room was “actually fun,” according to one of my students. This activity helped solidify their skills, and I will definitely use it again. – Whitney P.

My students had SO much fun with this activity! They got so into it, and it really brought out their competitive side as I used it for a class-wide competition. I would definitely recommend this as excellent review. – Erika Curtis

My grade 12 Core students loved this escape room! It was a little tricky at times, but we worked on some of the clues together. All in all, they had a fantastic experience. Thank you for creating such a wonderful resource! – FLE with Mme D

This was great practice for my Level 3 students. A couple notes from me for improvement – for the listening activity, since it was multiple choice and told them when they were wrong, they just clicked the opposite answer and completed it without watching the video. Also, they were daunted by the fact that the video was so long. Perhaps you could make it clear they only have to watch ___ minutes of the video so they’re less likely to give up right away, and consider making the listening quiz a “type your answer” quiz. You could give the options in the question so it’s still more guided, but make them type it in so they have to think a little more than just blindly clicking. Secondly, in the painting description, you have 2 conflicting answers in the teacher’s manual for a monté vs. est monté. I also wondered about the answer being “deux personnes ont levé” instead of “deux personnes se sont levés.” Finally, the description of the task in English on the home page didn’t make sense to me – what did you mean by “the friend who was kidnapped isn’t the same friend”? Overall a great resource, those are just the issues that tripped us up and could be improved upon. Merci!

Thank you so much for your feedback! I’ve updated the clue page for the video so students will know that they only need to watch 3 minutes. The reason for it just being a select the answer rather than write the answer on that one is so that it is listening focused rather than writing – since there are other activities in the game that do require them to form the verb form, I wanted this one to just focus on listening skills. Some students will likely just click until they find the correct answer, but I’m hoping that most will at least attempt to listen and do the activity. I also update the instructions on the home page and in the teacher pdf – if you download the file again, you should see the corrections.
