What Teachers Are Saying About the Team Building Activities:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I started "Fun Fridays" this year. They were thrilled to play this game, and the teams were uber-competitive! This strengthens team-building skills. Thanks!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These team building activities are so much fun. My students really enjoyed each activity, and I enjoyed watching them work together
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ These are really unique and engaging projects. Great to space out during the year for a class that might start off not knowing one another well. I did one after each time I mixed up the seating chart.
