Break the ice with a collection of icebreakers for Kindergarten through fifth grade. Scholars get to know their new friends through various activities such as quilt design, personal interviews, cootie catchers, singing, a game of "Would You Rather...?, and a scavenger hunt. As a bonus, an article provides additional icebreakers and insight into how to build a classroom community and spark grand discussions.
