A good warm up should address two things:
1. Reviewing: review with students the previously taught material
2. Previewing: Share the learning plan with your students (What they are expected to achieve by the end of the lesson)
The objective of a warm-up is to revise previous learning and link it to the new learning so that students can make sense of what is being taught. There is no one ideal warm up. Similarly, there is no one fits all warm up activity. You should think of a warm up that can lead the students to assimilate the new material. Below are several links to warm-up activities:
I hope you will find my contribution a bit helpful. Wish you a nice day.

Hello Everyone,
 
Just wanted to say, I totally agree with you Sarsar, an activity should have some reason for taking place or else it �s just a mindless activity.
 
Good luck with your classes!

Review games are always great. You can find many bingo, crossword puzzle, and other free sites to create these printouts online easily. I also am a big fan of getting kids moving. Can you project a youtube video in your classroom? Try dancing, hopping, group activities--anything moving tends to get the mind going. Good luck!
