Engaging Students from the beginning
On the first day of class, I always hand out an ice breaker that asks about a student's background, their goals, their favorite things, and their motivation. I then answer the questions about myself openly and honestly. This lets the students know that I appreciate them and that I am an open book. Do you think this is a good idea or do you have any other ice breaker ideas? Thanks!
Hi Ramah,
Yes, great idea! I normally take in M&M's the first day and have the students take a few from the candy dish. Based on the number of M&M's the student takes, the student has to tell the class that many different things about them.
