This is a different way of getting to know your students.  It would be great for a first day of school ice breaker!  Chelsey Schulenburg High School, School Homework, School Starts, Kindergarten Classroom, Classroom Activities

I like the idea of starting off the school year by reading a book to the students. It starts the year off simply and after reading the book the students can write a sentence on their favorite part or rule. This way, one of the first things on the wall will be the students own work to look at. Also, this is a great way to introduce the rules of the classroom or have the students come up with the rules themselves. -Katelynn Rosewitz School Crafts, School Ideas, September School, School Classroom, Book Activities

I really like the idea of having the students be a part of creating some class rules. This way they are able to own and feel like a part of the classroom. The teacher can help when necessary but giving them an option to come up with some ideas is great. - Katelynn Rosewitz Middle School, Group Activities, Leadership Activities, Free Activities, School School

I really like the idea of having the students express what they want out of you as a teacher. This way you are able to be the best teacher to your ability for them. Also, this is a great ice breaker. - Katelynn Rosewitz School Night, School Games, Summer School

To promote kindness in the classroom. Ths is the time of year we all need a new idea! have students make a shout out about another student who is doing good. Could use for staff! Letting students and even faculty know what their great qualities are can give anyone who needs confidence some love. If you are having problems with students bullying or not behaving well, you can have them write kind things about each other to see what they have in common. - Ashley Becker Classroom Behavior, Future Classroom, Student Council Activities, Classroom Meeting, Classroom Reward System, Classroom Hacks

This is a great get to know your student activity. This also can be used during open house to show parents who other students are. This is a very cute idea that I am very excited to use. While working on these students can get to know each other and express their creative side. - Ashley Becker Classroom Crafts, Classroom Organization, School Activities, Classroom Ideas, Student Led Conferences, Parents Conferences

Me in a Nutshell! This would be a great 'getting to know you" activity at the beginning of the school year. Students could take this home and answer the questions. The next day at school they would take those questions and create a poster about themselves inside a nutshell. -Falan Conrad First Week Of School Ideas, New School Year, School Holidays, Get To Know You Activities

I love this activity "I wish my teacher knew". This is an excellent way to help teachers to learn things about students that they may not want to share. Teachers will still get the information they need to help the class. Students can stay anonymous or provide their name. Either way the teacher gets the information needed to help her students succeed. Student Writing, Student Life, Grade School Teacher, Math Class, Teacher Life, Teacher Stuff

This little activity is perfect for display outside classroom or a bulletin board. It has the student fill out basic information about themselves on a pennant that can be colored in or decorated to show who they are to the class.   -Faith Salentine Classroom Management, Fish Activities, Classroom Banner, Nutrition Activities

Awesome way to start off the school year and allow your students to get to know each other!  Have pre-cut puzzle pieces for students to decorate in a way that represents themselves.  Putting the puzzle together would be a great ice breaker/team building activity - Renee Lenda School Projects

Often times, teachers will provide their students with the expectations they have for them. However, hardly ever will a teacher ask his/her students what their expectations are for the teacher. This could be a great first day of school activity so the students know that you have their best interest at heart and so you know what they expect of you as the teacher! -Jessie Brown Middle School Reading, First Grade Classroom

Using a beach ball, a teacher can write different questions on the ball and have the students lightly toss it to one another. The students can then answer the question on the ball and it becomes a getting to know you activity. Great for the first day of school and for introductions! Could also be modified to use for different units throughout the school year by having different questions to study for on the ball as a trivia game. -Jessie Brown Number Activities Preschool, Icebreaker Activities, Speaking Activities, School Age

This is an "all about me bag". This would be a great activity for the first couple weeks of school for the students to introduce themselves to their peers. It also gives the teacher a chance to get to know their students right away so they know how to relate to them. -Gaby Hochmuth

This would be a great activity to start off a new year!  I would really be comfortable using this with any grade - possibly changing some of the prompts when needed.  It's a fun way for students to get to know their peers and also for teachers to learn more about the students they will be teaching for the next 9 months!

Pixar Short Film: For the Birds (This one is great for the beginning of the year, especially to infer important ideas about friendships, tolerance, bullying, and more.
