Icebreakers, Teambuilding, and Conflict Resolution
Icebreaker and teambuilding activities are a great way to start off the year with new students. The small investment of time that these activities take is returned exponentially. Benefits include: supports a positive social climate; decreases in off task behaviors; improved social skills; improves student enjoyment; and raises participation levels.
