Find Someone Who! The Perfect First Day of School Activity!
A new school year has begun, filled with eager faces and endless possibilities. To help kids get to know each other, we have a special tool – icebreakers. With these fun activities, we’ll melt away shyness, spark conversations, and create lasting connections.
To use this resource, give each student a copy of the “Find Someone Who” worksheet. Set a timer and have them circulate around the classroom and talk! Their goal is to find someone who matches or meets the criteria shown in each box and have them sign their paper. When the timer sounds, go over each prompt as a group, helping students find others in the room who they can connect with!
