Icebreaker: What Am I?

Friday, December 5th, 2008

This icebreaker will be just great for Pre-K – 2 levels. The aim of this activity is for students to enhance their listening skill by identifying animal sounds.

Procedures
1. Say, “I went to the zoo and I heard this sound _____.” (For example, growl like a tiger or chirp like a parrot.)
2. Then say, “I turned around and saw a _____.”
3. Ask students to guess what animal you saw.
4. Continue playing, making new animal sounds.
5. After a few rounds, ask student volunteers to lead the game.

Variation: Other locations where sounds are heard like sounds in a street, in the country; in the city; in the forest; at school, in a farm, etc.
