Lesson Plan

Identity Map Kickoff

Students will create a visual identity map highlighting their interests, strengths, background, and one back-to-school goal, then share with peers to build classroom community.

This icebreaker helps students reflect on who they are, set personal goals, and foster rapport and belonging with classmates at the start of the year.
