This Back to School Bell Ringer goes beyond the basic get-to-know-you questions like 'What's your favorite food? What's your favorite color?' to facilitate a connection between you and your upper-grade students.

When teaching this lesson, you can model each step, thus allowing your students to get to know you and form connections with you. Students can easily use this no-prep beginning of the year activity because the templates have placeholders for the images to be easily inserted without any cropping or confusion.

This product was created in Google Slides and can easily be edited or assigned in Google Classroom or Canvas. A printable worksheet is also included so that this first-day activity can be easily customizable for any classroom situation.

Printable/PDF Version: If using this would you rather game as a traditional Four Corners Get to Know You Game, students will create a slide with a question of their choice (I've included examples to help students brainstorm). You can then project the slides in your classroom, and students will move to the corners of the room to show their responses.

Digital/Hybrid Version: Students will create a fun game piece to reflect their personality and an "In My Corner" Slide if used as a digital product. Students will use their game piece to show their response to each question by where they place it on the slide! Such a fun way to interact and connect digitally.

These templates are so cool because not only are they so simple to edit, but they are also beautiful and age-appropriate.

This All About Me Four Corners Game has been updated to include both the original printable and digital versions with editable text.

SEE WHAT TEACHERS ARE SAYING… Recommended for 5th - 8th Grades

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My students really had a blast with this; I got to see their personalities at the beginning of the year. They had great conversations with each other. This resource is great for engagement and building community.- Elizabeth D. 5th-6th Grade

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is a great beginning of the school getting to know you activity. It teaches students to work collaboratively. Plus, this was a great way to build relationships virtually. Fun and informative. - Ayfer Z. 4th Grade

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️I used this in a social and speech-language group in a high school resource room. The students all pulled out their own Chromebooks and used them in class. There were no glitches with the resource, and it was extremely easy to use! - Cambria R. 9th-12th Grade

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I loved the directions for using Pixton! I had no idea I would learn about that through this resource, but that was my absolute favorite part, and your directions were helpful as far as how to set that up from a teacher's perspective and how students can download the headshot to get their cute little game piece with this Pixton avatar.- Rachel R. 8th Grade
