Looking for an All About Me Activity? What about a Back to School Bulletin Board?

Back to school means a whole new batch of students are coming into your classroom. On day one, get to know your students by having them complete a collaborative puzzle to show them that “We Fit Right In!”

To complete,

1. Give each student one puzzle piece. If you have more pieces than students, pull random pieces from the middle to give co-teachers or other staff to decorate, or color them a solid color to blend in.
2. Students will draw a self-portrait and complete their piece using images, colors, and words that represent them.
3. Once all pieces are complete, put the puzzle pieces in number order and staple them to your bulletin board to form a 5×5 puzzle showing off your amazing students.

In the end, students get to know each other a bit better, and you end up with an easy-to-assemble and beautiful bulletin board for the hallway.
