@MsHellyersClass I made a rule that they had to switch the person with the iPad each time and had to take turns being in the videos.

A6: Is there a way to extend the video time? #gfedchat

A5: My students loved the competition aspect of this game. I loved being able to watch the live feed from my laptop to check in on their progress. #gfedchat

@BuchhopTeach Yes! I did a mixture of picture, video, and text missions. The videos were my favorite because they had to draw out their solution on a whiteboard and explain their thinking verbally.

A2: Games teach collaborative skills and motivate students. Kids are so engaged when they learn through play and learn so much from each other. #gfedchat

A6: I'd love to try a BreakoutEDU in a content area that I haven't tried before, such as math or science. #gfedchat

[Caely Nikle @CaelyK]

A5: In both life and in BreakoutEDU you are bound to come across problems. How you choose to deal with them is going to be the determining factor between failure and success. #gfedchat

[Caely Nikle @CaelyK]

A4: Teamwork, Critical Thinking, Problem-Solving, Perseverance #gfedchat

[Caely Nikle @CaelyK]

A3: I love how BreakoutEDU teaches students perseverance. They must try and try again until they get it right. #gfedchat

A2: Ss who struggle to work in a group can often be the biggest challenge. Some Ss want to take over and do everything and some want to let everyone else do the work. This has set up my class for class meetings on collaboration and participation. #gfedchat
