Distance Learning Compatible: This product can be downloaded as a printable PDF or copied into Google Slides. This will allow you to send the product to your students as an editable document. Download as a PowerPoint to upload to Microsoft Teams.

What’s included in the 21 page PDF download, as well as the 38 Google Slides:

• 7 pages of 30 unique full color challenge task cards
• 2 STEAM / STEM worksheets in full color for early and upper elementary
• Instructions Page

************************************************************

How can you use these task cards?

• Have the task cards available in makerspaces, centers, tubs, busy boxes, morning baskets, or available for early finishers to complete using ANY available materials. Students can even draw their creations instead of building them!

• Use one card a day during morning time. Have students fill out a STEAM / STEM worksheet or discuss and use the Google Slides as a class.

• Use them for public speaking practice. Allow students to build and then show and tell with the class or their parents. They can discuss what they made, liked, what they would improve, and how it solved the problem on the task cards. They can practice speaking and listening skills, using loud and clear voices, and giving full attention to the speaker. Encourage students to ask questions to their classmates.

• Ideally the goal is to do one challenge a day, but you could certainly allow students to do more than one.

**********************************************************

Why do I think you will love this product, and what makes my challenge set unique?

I love silly stories that bring humor and adventure to life for kids, but also that force them to use their imaginations in fun and exciting ways. This challenge task set does exactly that through the loose wacky stories where they are the main character. Silly scenarios, adventure and disaster, problem solving, and learning, are all part of the experience when building these challenges.

Most building challenge task cards are independent from each other. “Build a boat,” or “build an airplane,” are common themes among the cards. While those are fantastic, and we have done many of them ourselves, I wanted to do something different and more cohesive and engaging for kids.

The only rule is to HAVE FUN and allow those imaginations to soar!

**Please note that while the intent is for these to be independent, early readers may need some assistance in reading the cards.**

**This is not an editable document.**

Looking for a meaningful, low-prep activity to build connection, self-awareness, and classroom community during the first weeks of school or even throughout the year? This Roll & Match SEL Activity is the perfect tool to help your students reflect on who they are, what they need, and how they relate to others—all while having fun in small groups!

With **20 **diverse and relevant topics, students aren’t just answering random icebreaker questions. They’re thinking critically about their strengths, identifying challenges and areas of personal growth, and recognizing the people and supports that help them thrive.

This product includes two versions:

**✅ **One with 360 pre-made prompts across 20 SEL topics—featuring 20 worksheets, each with 18 thoughtful prompts (6 Strength, 6 Struggle, 6 Support) tailored to its theme.

**✅ **A second customizable set with blank worksheets—each organized by topic, with blank sections under Strength, Struggle, and Support for students (or you) to generate their own prompts.

★ Both versions are included in **print and digital formats, **with text boxes already created for easy typing or writing.

How to Play:

⭐ **If you choose to use the premade prompt version: **Each group receives a Roll & Match worksheet with prompts already filled in under the Strength, Struggle, and Support columns for numbers 1–6. Students take turns rolling a die. After rolling, they look at the row that matches their number and choose one prompt from the Strength, Struggle, or Support column to respond to. They can share their response aloud or write it down, based on the teacher’s instructions. Others in the group can comment, relate, or ask a follow-up question (optional).

⭐ **If you choose to use the blank | customized version: **Each group receives a blank Roll & Match worksheet organized by topic, with sections for Strength, Struggle, and Support under numbers 1–6. Students begin by working together to create their own prompts based on the chosen topic. Once complete, they take turns rolling a die, selecting one prompt from the matching row, and responding aloud or in writing. Group members may listen, connect, or ask follow-up questions if they wish.

▶ This resource also includes two teacher guidance worksheets, each aligned to the activity formats to ensure you know exactly how to begin and facilitate these engaging dice-rolling activities. The guidance sheets provide a clear overview of the purpose of the activity, a list of topic editions, materials needed, setup instructions, and step-by-step directions for how to play.

As students roll and respond to prompts, they’re:

✔️ Helping students reflect on their interests, daily habits, and personal challenges

✔️ Encouraging them to express their thoughts and feelings in a safe way

✔️ Promoting active listening and meaningful peer connections

✔️ Supporting the development of self-awareness, empathy, and a sense of belonging

✔️ Laying the groundwork for a respectful, supportive classroom community

▶ Whether using the 360 pre-made prompts or the editable version where you or students generate their own prompts, this activity transforms surface-level introductions into deeper, more meaningful conversations. It’s more than a get-to-know-you game—it’s an opportunity for students to share authentically and discover common ground.

Looking for fun digital resources, like games, brain breaks and activities for your early finishers that aren't lame? Well, you found the right place...this classroom game bundle will get your students excited to be in school, create relationships, and get students talking and connected! Great for any time of year or as a back-to-school get-to-know-you activity! Students are always nervous on the first day and playing games like 4 Corners and Would You Rather is a fun, stress-free way for them to get to know their classmates, while sharing similarities about themselves!

►Use them as engaging class activities throughout the year! It's the perfect icebreaker for middle and high school!

WHAT'S INCLUDED....

1. Would You Rather

A fun whole class activity with questions that align with student interests and are the perfect mix of silly, funny, trending, gaming & social media-related topics. No prep is needed! Whether you call it "Would You Rather" or "This or That," the prompts make a great conversation starter that kids love, and they will be begging you for more!

⭐I like to use these slides for a quick brain break. I use about 10 slides at a time!

• 100 Would You Rather Slides (Now in Google Slides!)

Note: If your district does not allow you to add to your Google Drive, or you would prefer a PDF version of this activity, simply send me a message here with your email address through the Q&A and I will email it to you after you have purchased the resource.

Ideas for using these questions:

• In centers

• To facilitate respectful discussion or debate
• To build critical thinking skills
• To practice communicating ideas
• To defend thoughts and opinions
• For a fun activity!!!

2. Four Corners

Use this fun whole class activity to get your students up and out of their seats and making connections! You will find a few typical all about me questions, but the majority of the slides are geared toward the interests of teenagers, leaning into social media, musical artists, food, fashion and more! You definitely won't see overused questions like "what's your favorite color?" or "How many siblings do you have?" You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one of the questions. Read it aloud, then students should move to the corner that corresponds with their answer choices. You'll quickly see that students will start opening up as they relax and feel confident to defend their choices.

If you are looking for a way to start your school year off strong with a rigorous yet engaging activity, look no further than this Back to School Digital Escape Room for ELA for use with Google Drive!

There is no wonder why escape rooms are so popular; they are highly engaging and encourage people to think creatively in order to solve different puzzles... all while trying to beat the clock! Now, you can facilitate our popular Back to School Escape Room at home for distance learning or in the classroom using your school's technology (thereby cutting down on paper and valuable prep time) with this meticulously-crafted resource. Each task is skills-based so that with this fun activity, learning is not sacrificed. Distance learning can certainly be a struggle for both students and teachers, so this escape room aims to provide a welcome break from the monotony while encouraging higher order thinking skills and a fun review of ELA material.

How does it work?

Your students must escape your digital classroom by solving 5 different Language Arts skills-based puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• Lit Match: In the first task, students must match literary terms with examples from popular books, songs, and animated movies by drawing a line connecting the term with the example. These lines will intersect with letters that once unscrambled, will form their first code word.
• Book Talk: In the second task, students must identify the part of speech used in quotes about literature by famous figures. When matched correctly, shaded boxes reveal the second code.
• Word Maze: In the third task, students must solve a word maze. Letters collected along the way form the third code.
• Figuratively Speaking: In the fourth task, students must identify the figurative language device used in animated movie songs. Designated letters in each answer form the fourth code.
• Jig Saw Quote: In the fifth and final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle that forms an inspirational quote to motivate them to start their year off strong. (We can't give that away here!)

Product Includes:

- Instructions for how to access and share escape room and answer key through Google Drive

- Materials for 5 Tasks: digital task signs, detailed task instructions, and interactive worksheets

- Digital Student Answer Sheet

- Digital Teacher Answer Key

This product requires free accounts through Google Drive and is completely paperless.

For this activity, you and your students will need access to Google Sheets. For best use, each student should have their own device.

Engage your students in a fun and interactive way with this Math Pixel Art Activity with Google Sheets! Perfect for reinforcing order of operations, this activity challenges students to solve order of operation problem to reveal a hidden pixel art picture. Each set gets harder as they go, allowing you to differentiate for students!

What you're getting:

• Pixel Art 1 - Level One (school bus)
• Pixel Art 2 - Level Two (globe)
• Pixel Art 3 - Level Three (calculator)

There are 19 total problems in EACH pixel art, totaling 57 total problems.

How it works:

• Students will solve a series of order of operation problems, each corresponding to a color or section of a pixelated image.
• As they evaluate the expressions correctly, they "fill in" the picture, pixel by pixel, revealing a fun design at the end.
• The more problems they solve, the clearer the image becomes, providing instant feedback and a sense of accomplishment!

Why it's great for the classroom:

• Engaging & Interactive: Keeps students focused while practicing essential math skills.
• Instant Feedback: Students can immediately see the results of their work, motivating them to keep solving problems.
• Differentiation: Different levels of difficulty make it ideal for any classroom setting!

This Math Pixel Art Activity is a fantastic way to combine creativity with learning, making algebra fun and exciting for students of all ages!

Whether you are starting school in the classroom or teaching virtually, start your year off strong with the Back to School Poetry Digital Escape Room for use with Google Drive!

There is no wonder why escape rooms are so popular; they are highly engaging and encourage people to think creatively in order to solve different puzzles... all while trying to beat the clock! Now, you can facilitate our Back to School Poetry Escape Room at home for distance learning or in the classroom using your school's technology with this meticulously-crafted resource. All tasks are skills-based so that with the escape room, learning is not sacrificed; in fact, your students will come away with a stronger understanding of poetic terms and devices. Distance learning can certainly be a struggle for both students and teachers, so this escape room aims to provide a welcome break from the monotony while encouraging higher order thinking skills and a fun review of poetry.

How does it work?

The ghosts of Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, Langston Hughes, William Shakespeare, and Maya Angelou have risen from the grave to lock your students inside your [digital] classroom. They are upset because they believe that students spend too much time making TikToks and not enough time reading and writing poetry. Students cannot escape until they complete 5 poetry-based tasks to show these ghosts of poets past that they do in fact know their poetry.

• Watch Your Tone: In the first task, students will read 6 poem excerpts and identify their tone. When cards are matched correctly, shaded letters will reveal the code.
• Rhyme Time: In the second task, students will read 8 poem excerpts and determine the rhyme scheme of each. When cards are matched correctly on a chart, numbers on the cards will reveal the code.
• Poe's Anatomy: In the third task, students will closely read A Dream by Edgar Allan Poe and complete an anatomy of the poem. When completed correctly, shaded letters within the answers will reveal the code.
• Ah-Mazing: In the third task, students must solve a challenging word maze. Letters collected along the way form the fourth code.
• Complete the Quote: The final task brings the first four tasks together. Students must match the code words with their definitions and complete a quote about poetry.

Product Includes:

- Instructions for how to access and share escape room and answer key through Google Drive

- Materials for 5 Tasks: digital task signs, detailed task instructions, and digital worksheets

- Digital Student Answer Booklet

- Digital Teacher Answer Key

This product requires free accounts through Google Drive and is completely paperless.
