Description
This Back to School the ABC’s of Me resource comes in both PRINTABLE and DIGITAL versions. Your purchase includes 3 different activities. It is the perfect Back-to-School ice breaker for getting to know your students and for your students to get to know each other!
Get to know your students:
This is the perfect resource to not only have your students stretch their thinking to come up with details of their lives or about themselves to represent the letters A but to elaborate on goals, words to describe themselves, what they are excited to learn about this school year, etc. It also creates a classroom community by all of your students getting to know each other.
This would be the perfect activity to assign via Google Classroom or printout. It would allow your students to stretch their brains by coming up with 26 details (A-Z) about their lives.
Great for presentations!
You could have them present their products, turn them in just to let you know more about them, or have them do partner work and have their partners present them.
