Anyways, being that I will have some of the same students, I needed to up my Back to School activities game. With being on trend, I wanted to do something fun with emojis. Something simple, but would still include how they are feeling about their first day of school. Will they be nervous, surprised, excited about etc?! (P.S - Writing tasks using emojis will be coming at a later date.)
One of my favorite back to school activities that I love, Stump your Teacher! It is similar to Two Truths and a Lie; I just have students list three truths. This is such a fun activity to get to know your students. Some of them can get very creative and I love trying to figure out what they are fibbing about. It always gets a lot of laughs.
Since back to school activities are often about the teachers getting to know the students, I find that the students also like to know a little about us too. Due to that reason, I have created a teacher true and false. I have kept it fairly generic; however, you can recreate it to make it more specific to you :) Again, this is another classroom favorite that tends to get a few laughs.
These are just a few of the activities that I have in my Back to School bundle. Other activities include #MySelfie, classmate scavenger hunt, classmate interview, goals for the school year, and math about me. To see more details about each activity check out my link to the bundle here. Or simply head on over to my store on TpT.
Welcome back my friends!
