Hereʻs an icebreaker Iʻd like to try come Fall. It is from Gamestorming: A Playbook for Innovators, Rule-Breakers and Changemakers. (Howʻs that title?) The website contains a plethora of facilitating, problem-solving, team-building, decision-making, etc. etc. etc. activities based on PLAY. When classroom time needs a boost, I go to Gamestorming.
The activity is called Low-Tech Social Network
Check it out!
Iʻm definitely going to give it a try.
This activity seems great! Can ask students to put on their card one hobby, one reason for being in school, and one thing they hate, I mean, they feel is challenging in writing. Then network their responses too (in case no one knows anyone). I'm gonna try it out too. You think it'd be too messy to use yarn to connect people's cards? Like how they analyze blood splatter at crime scenes...
