Math About Me! Printable Get to Know You Games and Activities

Start your year off a little differently with this fun All About Me Activity, where students share information about themselves only in math equations! There are three different templates included to suit your class. Use the templates that best fit your classroom needs. Instead of writing, students will generate math equations to answer each category. A blank template is also included for older students to develop their own categories. 

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors 

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities. 

With adult supervision, cutting skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

  • strengthen finger and hand muscles
  • build dexterity and fine motor skills
  • improve hand-eye coordination
  • develop focus and attention.

And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork; button a shirt and tie shoes; write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills! 

Download & Print — It’s Child’s Play! 

This is a super easy back-to-school activity, as all you have to do is download, print, and give it to your students to complete. Pick the template that suits your student’s needs first – and then only print that template for each student, rather than printing the whole download.
