Turn French family, numbers, and descriptions review into an interactive challenge with this no-prep, self-grading French family escape room! Designed for French 1, A1, or Novice Low/Mid learners, the game combines family vocabulary, ages, numbers in the tens and hundreds, descriptions of people, birthday gifts, and être and avoir.

Students help plan a birthday party for Claudio, a vampire who is 126 years old. To complete the mission, they work through sequential reading, listening, vocabulary, grammar, and writing challenges.

Students will practice:

• French family vocabulary
• Reading and labeling a family tree
• Numbers in the tens and hundreds
• Ages in French
• Understanding descriptions of people
• Birthday-gift vocabulary
• Using avoir and être in descriptions
• Reading, listening, and short written responses

The escape-game tasks include:

• Listening and vocabulary: Choose the correct birthday gift based on the audio
• Grammar: Supply the missing form of avoir or être
