Breaking the ice with older children can be hard, especially when kids come from a variety of backgrounds and cultures and may not be confident in the English language. This printable is designed to unearth some interesting facts and skills that can inspire further conversations, cooperation and friendship in the future, and provide common ground straight away. Less confident kids can be prompted to talk about their favourite celebrity or show off another language, and so on.
Give each child in your new class or group a copy of this ice breaker printable and send them off to find other kids who share the same interests and characteristics as them. It could get noisy!
The aim of this ice breaker printable is to get a group of kids who don't know each other well talking and finding things in common, as well as giving less confident children something to talk about.
This fun ice breaker printable is perfect for younger children at the beginning of the school year as they begin to mix and make friends with their classmates. Give them the sheet on a clipboard and suggest they mingle and collect names.
