Inside the case file
There's been a crime in the city, and only your students' multiplication skills can crack it. This Multi-Digit Multiplication Digital Escape Room sends Grades 4–5 students on the "Crime in the City" case — solving 2-digit by 2-digit, 3-digit by 1-digit, and 4-digit by 1-digit problems with the standard algorithm to unlock each room.
It's animated and self-checking, so accuracy matters and the grading takes care of itself.
