This foldable brochure has six sections, each of which offers your students a new activity or chance to express themselves, whether it's circling their likes on the This or That game or thinking up fantastic Two Truths a Lie statements to stump their classmates! Students will also get a kick out of the hidden messages included on each brochure...one reads "GOOD LUCK!" and the other reads "YOU'LL LOVE THIS YEAR!" In order to decipher the secret message, students simply close one eye and tilt back the image until it's almost flat. Turn it sideways, then look again for the second message!

3. Four Corners Whole Classroom Game

Use this fun whole class activity to get your students up and out of their seats and making connections!

You'll see instant engagement as students realize this isn't another boring classroom game.

Simply print the four included labels for each corner of your classroom and project one question at a time. 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.
