Ways to use:

2. Personalized Message: Leave a blank space on the back of the card for a handwritten note. Take a moment to write a short, encouraging message to each student. Mention how excited you are to have them in your class and share a positive expectation for the upcoming year.
3. Welcome Cards on the First Day of School: Hand out customized cards to students as they enter the classroom on the first day of school. This gesture will instantly make them feel valued and excited about the new academic year.
4. Open House Gift for Students: Distribute these gift tags and cards to students who attend the open house to welcome them to your classroom.
5. Include a classroom photo: Include a photo of your classroom or a group picture from a previous school event on the card. This will give students a glimpse of their future learning environment and the opportunity to see their potential classmates.
6. Add a school essential item: To make the gift even more special, consider attaching a small school essential item to each card. It could be a fun eraser, a colorful pencil, or a cute bookmark. This small addition will add a touch of fun and practicality.
7. Send out after the first week: Customize each card with the student's name and a warm, personalized greeting. Mention something specific about the student's interests or hobbies to show that you already know and care about them.
8. You can distribute the cards by mail, hand them out to students, or use the digital option to email the cards to students.

WHAT'S INCLUDED....

1. Four Corners Icebreaker

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:

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

• Who do you think would win the rap battle?

• If you could collaborate with any fashion brand, which would it be?

2. Four Corners Mini Debate Activity

Teacher burnout begone!!! You AND your students will love this fun activity! Perfect as icebreakers for those in-between days during back to school when you don't have anything planned. This Four Corners Mini Debate Activity is a great no-prep activity that you can use any time of year for a fun, engaging activity that your students will LOVE!

Students will love moving around the room as you click through the 35 debatable topics - mostly controversial, but some are silly as well! This is perfect for middle school/high school, but teachers are encouraged to preview the statements and skip over any which you feel are too controversial for your student population. (I definitely stayed away from the most controversial topics).

►You will love this well-organized activity that allows students to voice their opinions, defend their positions, and even learn something new!

►The printable Reflection Sheet will allow them to reflect on the ideas presented, and asks them to discuss two issues that they may have changed their stance on after the debate and the reasons why. This is an activity I use in my classroom every year and I know your students will love it!

INCLUDED WITH YOUR PURCHASE:

• 35 Statements (Google Slides)

• Includes a Blank Editable Slide

• 5 Printable Classroom Signs

• Student Reflection Sheet

STUDENT GUIDELINES FOR USING THIS RESOURCE:

►If you agree with the statement, move to the side of the room labeled “Agree” or “strongly agree.” If you disagree, move to the side of the room labeled, “Disagree” or “strongly disagree.” If you’re not sure how you feel about the topic yet, move to the side of the room labeled, “Undecided.” (I typically have "undecided" students stand in the middle and hang the other posters in the four corners of the room.)

***Students should be prepared to defend their position even if they’re undecided.
