Icebreakers. Most students love them or dread them. In this resource guide, we’ll cover kite drawing, standing introductions, check-in and warm-up activities, and first day icebreakers. 

We know it isn’t always easy to engage students and motivate them to participate in class icebreakers, but we also know there is research behind the happiness of fostering chit-chat among students and creating those connections. In this free resource, we offer specific activities and icebreakers you can use in-person or online for any course subject.
