Three different 'ice-breaker bingo' sheets. This is ideal if you have a new group of students. All students need to do is talk to everyone in the group and find individuals who have done the things on their bingo sheet. e.g. eaten sushi, play a musical instrument, broken a bone, been to a festival... This really gets students talking to each other and is a great warm up activity.

A great art cover or sub lesson. Students think creatively and turn the circles into different drawings on this one page resource. Includes lesson plan which has full instructions and an extension idea.
