Escape!
This week you will be completing a digital Escape Room which will test your knowledge of figurative language and types of conflict. (Remember the posters you made at the beginning of the year?) Escape Rooms are meant to be fun, but also, challenging! It will be important to read the directions very carefully, and to pay attention to how to type in answers.
You might find it helpful to collaborate in your class's Google chat.
The first link is to the Escape room and the second link is the coding chart you will need.
Good Luck!
