All About Me Google Slides | First Day of School Activities | Get to Know Me

ENGAGE your students with these 9 DIGITAL Back to School activities that require ZERO PREP and that your students will love to get to know each other! A digital resource where students will describe themselves with Emojis, compare and contrast themselves with a friend, play "Find Someone Who" by filling their Bingo board with photos of their friends, create a photo collage, play "Would You Rather" and more.
