Description
This back to school activity with drawing and movement will get them engaged. Your students arrive on the first day, nervous. They KNOW you're going to ask them to do an icebreaker. We need icebreakers to get the nerves out and enjoy each other! But many of them dread this part of the day because they know they're going to have to talk and interact with these strange new classmates. They'd rather write or draw!
That's where this Icebreaker for Introverts comes in. Students work through the slides, either independently or with the whole class, and pick a side with This or That prompts. They must then add to a drawing of "their human." The drawing gets stranger and stranger! Giggling will begin, just a warning. :)
Then, instead of having to share out loud in front of the whole class, EVERYONE gets up holding their drawing in front of them. They wander around looking at each other's drawings, searching for a twin. Or triplets! Or at least... maybe in the same family?
The results are hysterical! It's best if you join in the fun with them!
What's included:
Student-facing directions
20 This or That questions with drawing prompts
Blank human face worksheet
There is a high-resolution PDF of the questions that you can project on a screen if you work through them together as a class.
OR!
You could send them the google slides in "present" mode and have them complete this independently at their own pace. There is a blank template included if you'd like to add more!
