Four Corners ALL ABOUT ME Powerpoint First Week of School Game

Description

The first week of school is exciting, but also a little awkward — your new students are sitting next to kids they barely know, and you need something that gets them up, moving, and actually talking to each other.

This Four Corners All About Me game is a simple, low-stakes way to break the ice on day one. Students answer questions about themselves by walking to a corner of the room, and as they look around, they start to see what they have in common with their classmates. It gets everyone out of their seats, laughing, and connecting — without you having to do much at all.

WHAT YOU WILL GET:

• 20 All About Me questions formatted as a PowerPoint slideshow
• Number posters to label the four corners of your classroom
• Color-coded answer choices on each slide that match the corner posters

The slideshow is formatted to fit right on your whiteboard, so setup takes about thirty seconds. You open it, display it, and play. There is nothing to print, cut, or prep ahead of time. Each slide shows a question and the answer choices, students move to their corner, and you move on to the next one. You can even join in yourself, which the kids always get a kick out of.

This works well on the very first day of school, during the first week when you are still building community, or any time you want a quick movement break with a purpose. It is a natural fit for morning meeting, a transition activity, or just a way to fill those early days when routines are still getting established. Because it runs entirely from the slideshow, there is nothing for you to manage except clicking to the next slide.
