Would You Rather? American History Back to School Icebreaker Game
Looking for an American History Ice Breaker? You've come to the right place! In this game, students complete twelve "Would you Rather?" scenarios inspired by American history, but requires almost no knowledge of American history! Once students are done with the worksheet, present the PowerPoint, where students can vote for which one they chose, and explain their answers! It really is a great way to engage students in American History and break the ice early in the school year! I hope you enjoy this fun and exciting game on the first week of school!
