First Day Introduction Power Point

This powerpoint works for all ages and can easily be changed to fit different people. I use this as an ice-breaker and a first week assignment for my middle/high school students. While I do not recommend judging books (or people) by their covers, this is a fun exercise to show the students how making assumptions about poeple is not a good habit. After going through the power point about myself, I ask the students to make a list of ten true or false statements about themselves that I will do as my homework. The kids get a kick out of "grading" the teacher and I get to learn about the students, too!
