PAPER CHAIN SIMILARITY ACTIVITY
One of the primary purposes of Advisory is to build meaningful relationships between students and staff, as well as between students and other students. Today's activity helps accomplish this.
Materials
Paper
If you need construction paper, stop by Amy Rosenberg’s room (2073) at your earliest convenience
Stapler, tape, glue, or other means of securing paper rings closed
Instructions
Break your homeroom students into groups of 2 to 4, depending on your preference.
Give students 10-15 minutes to talk to one another in order to identify as many similarities between group members as possible. Examples: all group members have an older sister, all group members went to a country music concert in the last year, etc. They should avoid obvious similarities such as all attending RHHS.
Students will write each similarity they identify on a strip of paper and turn those strips into a paper chain.
After 10-15 minutes, each group should choose 1 or 2 of the most unique similarities to share with the whole class. The group with the longest paper chain can also be recognized.
Decide if/how you want to link and/or display all paper chains in your homeroom classroom.
