Dreams of Someday
Whether your students are planners or prefer to fly by the seat of their pants, writing
a five year plan can be beneficial in many ways. Explain the concept to your class and
then give them time to think about where they will be in five years and how they will get
there. Finally, have your students share their plans with the class

Have everyone take off one shoe as they come in and place them in a pile. After
everyone arrives, have each person go by the pile and pick up a shoe that doesn't
belong to them.
When everyone has picked up a shoe from the pile, they then take the shoes and
find the person it belongs to by looking at each person's feet to match the shoe they
have picked up. That person must tell the person with their shoe at least 3 things
about themselves that's not common knowledge in order to get their shoe back.
After everyone has their own shoes back, have a quick discussion of some of the
things that everyone learned new about their neighbors (friends). If it's a group that
are not aquainted, they can just tell any three things about themselves.
If I Were
One great icebreaker game that works well with Christian groups is If I Were. The group simply takes turns
saying statements that begin with If I were . . . For example, If I were a flower, I would be a daisy, because
it is simple and pretty. Some other categories are, If I were a . . . food, animal, President, song, movie,
book, car, airline, city, country, etc. For younger children, it might be best to give the prompt and let them
finish the statement. Sometimes you get some really funny statements that will make everyone laugh.
A quick warm up would be the simple kids game called "I`m going..." The teacher starts out "I`m going shopping. I will buy a
pencil". The first student says "I`m going shopping. I will buy a pencil and an eraser". Each student starts out the same, and
has to remember all the previous answers and adds a new one. To make it simpler and faster, each student only has to
remember the students answer directly before them. Good game for simple repetition of a sentence pattern for many different
sentence structures. You have to teach the meaning first of course, but as I said, it`s a good warm up activity!
