OUR CLASSROOM RULES LESSON: Low-Prep Back to School Review of Class Expectations

$3.00

Description

YOUR STUDENTS WILL LOVE “PLAYING” OUR LESSON ABOUT CLASSROOM RULES!

Looking for a low-prep, interactive classroom rules lesson? Guaranteed you and your students will have tons of fun playing this quiz show style SEL activity!  Best of all, your students will learn, and practice team building social skills skills.  All the while learning class expectations, why rules matter, and other tips for being successful at school.

 

WAYS TO USE THIS FUN SEL ACTIVITY

You can use this Game Show as a stand-alone lesson about school rules and/or review of expected and unexpected behavior. Great for your small groups, too!  Moreover, it’s distance learning ready:  it includes both Google Slides™ and Power Point Presentation files, which allows you to use for SEL distance learning, teletherapy, virtual counseling groups, school counseling guidance and in person lessons.

 

What’s Super Sweet About this Lesson on Class Rules?

The Game Show format is hands-on and experiential.  Moreover, your students will use reflective thinking, cooperative learning, and be able to show off and build on their smarts in different ways.  Plus, the questions and challenges are 100% customizable so if you like, you can edit them to better fit your specific needs.  On top of that, it’s low-prep, perfect for all you busy counselors and teachers!  There’s even a school counseling guidance lesson plan included, too!

 

The Game Show Categories Are:

  • ACT IT OUT: teams act out / role play the challenge prompt.
  • TRUE or FALSE: teams decide whether the statement is true or false.
  • SKETCH IT: teams quickly draw their answers.
  • IMAGINE IF: teams answer “Imagine If” questions, using their imagination & problem solving skills.
  • RISK: teams take a “risk” because the type of question and/or challenge is not revealed until chosen.

 

What’s needed to play the Game Show?

  • If you are using this classroom rules lesson in person, it is best used with a Promethean White Board or projector that that can be hooked up to your computer; it’s formatted as a power point presentation and now google slides™, too!
  • If using for distance learning, all players need internet access. Share your screen with students!
  • Want to go screen-free? No problem! This Game Show also comes with printable task cards with the same prompts as the Game Show challenges.

 

Provides lots of flexibility….

Given that the GAME SHOW takes 40-60 minutes to play, and sometimes we just don’t have that much time….or that the GAME SHOW works best projected on a large screen, and sometimes the technology breaks down….or that there are days when we walk into the classroom and just know that a whole classroom game is not going to fly that day….and sometimes students need more quiet, reflective activities……I have included more than 6 additional formats that do not require the use of the power point presentation or google slides™. (Note: the additional activities do involve some printing prep-work.)

  • M 1. Belief in development of whole self, including a healthy balance of mental, social/emotional and physical well – being

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING

I used this with an 8th-grade AVID class the day we returned from Thanksgiving break. They really had fun with it! It did go pretty quickly with older kids, they knew that it was meant for kids younger than them, but they allowed themselves to be silly and answer in ways that were appropriate to our school.

My students loved this resource! I used it as an ice breaker for beginning of the year classroom guidance lessons with 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students. Thank you so much for sharing it! I find it difficult to find really engaging activites with my student population and this really helped.
