It's Back to School Time – Get ready for icebreakers!

How do you feel about icebreakers?

Personally, I have a variety of feelings towards this back to school tradition 😉 however, I find it humorous that we put our students through very similar paces!

I consider myself a bit of an expert with icebreakers (since I've experienced maybe 500-750? oy) and want to share one of my favorites.

Back to School Icebreaker – How to Play

To start, everyone selects 4 candies – they have to be different colors (gummy bears work perfectly for this!).

Next, download or print the list of questions color-coordinated with the candies. There are four questions to be answered by placing a candy in the appropriate box.

THAT'S IT! The purpose of this icebreaker is to compare our sheets to see what we have in common, then go around and give a brief summary. The gummy bears provide a quick (and delicious) visual.

If your school doesn’t recommend using candy, teddy bear counters could easily be used instead of gummy bears.
