Icebreaker Activity Directions

  1. Get Your Supplies: Each student needs a small container of playdough. Keep it in your desk or with your supplies for repeated use.

  2. Start Building: When you arrive, find the playdough on your desk. Begin creating something that represents you or shares something about you.

  3. Choose Your Creation: Here are some ideas for what to build:

    • Your favorite animal
    • Your favorite food
    • Something that shows your hobby or interest
    • If you were an animal, which one would you be?
    • Something that represents your favorite TV show
    • Something that shows what you did over the summer
    • What you ate for breakfast
  4. Share Your Creation: Once you finish building, take turns showing your creation to the class and explain how it relates to you.

  5. Repeat if Desired: This activity can be done every morning during the first week of school or longer, using a new prompt each time.
