This school year I �m going to teach English in different classes (age of students: from 11 to16). As I don �t know a single student of any of these classes I �m thinking about suitable/funny so-called ice breakers that can be used in the very first lesson (in order to get to know the students!).

 

Have you got any suggestions/ideas/sites that could possibly help me?

 

I �d appreciate your comments very much.

 

Have a nice day and thanks in advance.

here is what I do with my new students:

bring a bag full of beans,balls or candies(they would love them:) and ask your students to grab a handful .then ask them to count how many beans/candies do they have.then ask them to tell you as many things about themselves as many beans/candies they have!If someone got many and ran out of things to say ask other students to ask some qstns.after the game students can eat candies:)

it really works!

have fun!

 

all the best...
