Water Conservation Classroom Challenge
Grades 6-8 | Water Conservation
NTMWD’s Water Conservation Classroom Challenge is an interactive escape room-style game for middle school students in grades 6-8. The game features three puzzles that encourage students to focus on critical thinking and problem-solving skills. This interactive experience allows students to collaborate in small groups to complete a series of challenges that support positive water conservation behaviors.
Teachers access the instructions and assets to play the game through an online portal designed specifically for the NTMWD educational programs. Classroom water kits ship directly to schools for registered teachers and are used during and after the game.

I really enjoyed the show and the educational information that the show gave to the students. The actors explained the four concepts of conserving and saving energy in best possible way. The students acted out the show right after and were excited to let me know what they have learned. We should have more shows like this about other topics as well.
