Let's Flag That: Back to School Edition is the best way to get students mingling in an introverted/extroverted way! Use the concept of "Red Flags" and "Green Flags" to teach students how to create and defend their position on a topic or scenario. 
 
ALSO THE PERFECT...
My students do not stop chatting plan
It's Friday and we all need a break plan
Emergency sub plan
I need a mental health day plan
When half of the class is done with their final project and the other half aren't PLAN!
 
In these interactive slides, students are first introduced to the concept of red flags vs green flags, and will brainstorm where they observe these flags in their world. Next, students will see a scenario and they have to decide if the scenario is a red flag or green flag and defend their answer. Some scenarios are generic, and some are summer break-esk!
 
With 20+ scenarios to flag, examples include:
Wearing socks with sandals
Eating the yellow Starburst first
Playing Fortnite for more than 3 hours in one sitting
Bringing music to the beach
Never seeing Star Wars
Riding the spinny rides at the carnival
Singing songs around the campfire
+many more!
 
PLUS 13 BONUS SCENARIOS so students will ALWAYS have something to work on:)
 
3 reflection questions at the end will get students thinking about the importance of sharing their perspectives! 
 
I LOVE walking around and talking to students while they defend their answers to me, sharing ideas and perspectives while maintaining positive classroom relationships. 
 
Have fun with your classes to start the school year!
