Today I want to share a quick and easy way to get to know your class during the first week of school. I started out with a regular inflatable beach ball:
{I bought mine at the DollarTree}
Then I wrote a bunch of get-to-know you questions all over it:
We went outside and gathered in a circle.
A student threw the ball to a classmate and wherever their right thumb landed, that was the question they had to answer.
The kids had a blast and it was a fun way for them to learn interesting things about their new classmates. I loved seeing them let loose, laugh, and open up with one another. It really helped to gel our class – and set the tone for an awesome school year!
