Icebreaker Jenga

I use this game when I'm getting to know a student one-on-one or in small groups. So far, all players from kindergarten to 4th grade have really liked it, and my 4th graders want me to make other versions with questions relating to their lessons. I included 20 questions for each block category, which is probably too many but different versions or knockoffs of this game have different numbers of blocks.

I wrote on one side of each block with a Micron pen, then dotted it with Crayola markers. I will try to add a couple pictures of the finished product soon.

Read more to see the full-sized image of the instructions, and a text list of the questions/ actions I used for my set. I don't know how to attach a MS Word document to my post so I uploaded the rules as .jpg files that should print portrait-style on 8.5 x 11 paper.

Monster Sighting Journal

I'm back after like a 2 year break. I'm finally working in a classroom again and hope to be able to share regular resources. Feel free to request anything, and I will see if I have time to work on it. Thanks for visiting!

Read more to see a template and an completed example of a sheet I made for a couple of 4th graders who said they liked scary movies. The documents are .jpgs that should print portrait-style on 8.5 x 11 paper.
