Figure 6.4
Breakout EDU Answer Sheet

When running this activity, I have the educators start at any station and rotate the
groups every five minutes. The answer sheet (shown in Figure 6.4) has all the unlock
answers from the stations, which reveal the link to the final Nearpod activity. By cre-
ating a shortened link in tiny.cc, the game can be adjusted when changes are made.
Creating a Breakout EDU game can be simple or extensive depending on how com-
plictated or customized you want to make the challenges. Many challenges can be
found at the breakoutedu.com website and can be filtered by grade and subject level.

Exploratory Play with Cubes and Blocks

Using the simple concept of playing with blocks, developers have come up with a
way to incorporate play with immersive technology. Using cubes that have six faces,
each of the faces features a trigger image to scan for augmented reality. In many
cases, combining cubes together to create a new trigger image brings the most inter-
action and engagement. Each of the cube resources function differently to provide
multiple learning activities at various grade levels.
