Use this activity to help your students get to know one another at the start of the year.
With this back-to-school classroom display idea, you get a first-day-of-school activity too! Students complete their very own piece of the game screen. This is a great activity to do on the first day of school as an icebreaker that also fills up the walls of the classroom.
Once each student has completed their segment, display them together on a bulletin board, window, or door — a simple yet effective classroom decoration that the students have created themselves and will be eager to show off.
Thanks to K-6 teacher Kristen who created this ‘all about me’ classroom display with her students. As she said, “The kids love creating it and it brings a splash of colour to our classroom!”
Prepare This Back-to-School Resource
This resource was designed in black and white for easy printing. You may choose to print on coloured paper, or, alternatively, stick with white paper and have students colour it themselves.
Display your grade, score (number of students in the class), and the teacher’s name for everyone to see.
