A fun icebreaker activity to use at the beginning of a new school year. This icebreaker activity combines a singing/action song with a ‘get-to-know-you’ discussion. The activity begins with students standing in pairs. They perform actions while singing altered words to the tune of ‘Baa Baa Black Sheep’. On completion of the song, students sit down with their partner to talk and get to know each other. This teaching resource includes both a ‘contact’ version and a ‘non contact’ version.
