The Backpack Mystery isn't a digital game; it's a tangible experience! Students will delve into a real backpack filled with intriguing items like a homework folder, pencil box, lunchbox, and pouch. Each item holds a unique set of paper and object puzzles, presenting clues that intertwine to unravel the mystery. This hands-on approach fosters collaboration and encourages students to think critically, solve problems, and work together as a team.


Designed to be reused, the Backpack Mystery comes with dry erase markers and allows for easy copying of materials. With an estimated completion time of 4-6 hours (spread across ten or more half-hour sessions), this extended activity provides ample opportunity for in-depth exploration and engagement.
