What are some good first day activities for high school that aren’t icebreakers?
July 21, 2025
My grade 9s and 10s always roll their eyes whenever I try anything that even sounds like an icebreaker. They're all too cool for it.
I have activities for us to all get to know each other, but they work better later in the year. What I can do to make sure we're off to a good start on the first day?
If it helps, I'm an art and art history teacher.
