Classroom Management: Get to Know You Game and Rules and Procedures Game
Yes, rules and procedures must be established, but imagine what it would be like to sit through several classes, if not 5 or 6, where each teacher is talking nonstop about them.

This 17-page editable packet includes a Get to Know You HELLO Game and a game template to help disseminate, in an engaging format for students, what you would like for them to know right away to be successful in your

Icebreaker! Find a classmate who
Kids are sick of the same old boring icebreaker questions! This is not the typical "find a classmate who.." game. The questions will actually get your students to know each other rather than the same questions they get asked every year. It helps to students to know each other and the teacher as well. These fun questions kept my 7th graders busy for at least 10 minutes, and they actually enjoyed it!

I've also played a variation of this game at the end of the year. The snowball prompts were different (e.g. what was your favorite part of the school year, what was your favorite unit, advice for next year's students, etc). Kids enjoyed seeing how t
