Activities for May & October

In this high-stakes twist on an escape room, teams must crack codes, uncover hidden clues, and outsmart the system to break free from Kifungo Prison! Blending online challenges with immersive augmented reality, students will put their logic and problem-solving skills to the test as they race against time. The warden’s office holds the key—top-secret messages, hidden evidence, and encrypted files that can prove their innocence and expose the truth. But can they decipher the clues, unlock the secrets, and escape before it's too late?

Break out with math! In this DESMOS animation challenge, use equations, inequalities, and polygons to create a dynamic prison break scene. Will you animate a dramatic wall explosion, a cracking keypad sequence, or a sweeping guard spotlight? Use math to bring the action to life—precision and creativity are your keys to escape!

Students should complete and submit their creations one week prior to October's event, or earlier

The bridge is old, unstable, and barely holding together—but that’s exactly what you need. Trapped on the wrong side of a deep ravine, your only way forward is to cross…and destroy the bridge behind you. Your team must build a bridge just strong enough to make it across—then bring it crashing down before the guards follow. Will your escape route hold long enough, or will it collapse too soon? In the Ravine of No Return, there’s no turning back—only racing forward before everything falls apart.

For decades, Thuravi's regime hailed Bhasara Dam as a marvel of engineering and progress—its floodgates holding back not just the river, but the truth. Beneath its shimmering waters lies a terrible secret: a massacre erased from history, a cover-up buried beneath the lakebed. But technology remembers what the regime wants forgotten. Using AR sandbox mapping, you will uncover the landscape as it once was—before the flood, before the lies. Then, with a well-aimed catapult, you will bring the dam crashing down. The flood is coming. Will you be the one to break the silence ?
