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
• During transitions
• For brain breaks
• Extra time filler
• At the end of the day
• During morning meeting
• 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.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

• 50 Questions (Google Slides)

• Includes a Blank Editable Slide

• 4 Printable Classroom Labels

The presentation includes 50 get-to-know-you questions. For example...

• Who do you think would win the rap battle?
• Which music artist do you think has the best live performances?
• If you could collaborate with any fashion brand, which would it be?
• What's your favorite way to spend time online?
• If you could switch lives with any celebrity for a day, who would it be?
• Which fast food restaurant would you want to eat at for the rest of your life?

HOW TO USE IT:

• first day of school get-to-know-you activity
• icebreaker
• brain breaks
• morning meeting
• teach respecting differences

If you are looking for the perfect way to end the school year and send your students off to summer vacation on a high note, look no further than this End of Year Escape Room for ELA!

There is no wonder why escape rooms are so popular; they are highly engaging and encourage people to work together and think creatively in order to solve different puzzles... all while trying to beat the clock! This meticulously-crafted resource features all of the materials you need to conduct a full-length ELA Escape Room. Planning an escape room may seem like quite the daunting task, but this product provides everything from the basics and set-up instructions to signs and answer keys so that yours runs smoothly from start to finish. The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. Plus, all tasks are skills-based and aligned to the Common Core so that with the escape room, learning is not sacrificed. Your students will be having so much fun that they won’t even realize the higher order thinking skills they are applying in the playing of this game!

How does it work?

In order to graduate from your ELA class and make it to summer vacation, your students must escape your classroom by solving 5 different Language Arts skills-based puzzles, discovering a hidden message, and finding clues along the way.

• In the first task, students must complete a crossword puzzle with questions about literary devices. Once complete, they must unscramble circled boxes to reveal the first code.
• In the second task, students must fill in an MLA Works Cited Page with fictional, contemporary sources (like Bruno Mars' "MLA? That's What I like!"). Once completed correctly, letters within the sources will reveal the second code.
• In the third task, students must identify the figurative language device used in pop songs by current artists. Shaded letters in the correct answers form the third code.
• In the fourth task, students must perform a close reading of Langston Hughes' "A Dream Deferred." This is perfect for the end of the school year as students reflect upon their dreams for the future. The letters of the multiple choice questions about the poem will form the fourth code.
• In the fifth and final task, students must assemble a jig saw puzzle with a famous and inspirational quote. (We can't give that away here!)

Product Includes:

- Escape Room Basics

- Detailed Day-Of Instructions

- Escape Room Print Checklist

- Student Teams Chart

- Welcome Sign for Your Door

- Materials for 5 Tasks: task signs to be folded upright, task instructions (2 per page for easy printing), and necessary information to be kept at stations

- Student Answer Booklet

- Teacher Answer Keys

- Code Word Theme Open Response for homework or in-class writing activity

- Escape Room Reflection for homework or in-class writing activity

Although this escape room is ideal for the end of the school year, it can be used at any time throughout the year without modification.
