I never really thought about that term being used in the classroom until I saw this on Twitter!

This game is great for the beginning of the school year, but it's also great for those times when a child is feeling a little too "different" and feels he doesn't belong.

It's also a great Morning Meeting activity!


It all starts with one child saying something they like. It can be an activity, or a food, or a toy, or even a subject in school.
