icebreaker ideas

I teach Design and Digital Technologies in a primary school and was wondering if anyone had quick icebreaker activity ideas I could use at the beginning of my lessons in the first week of school on iPads.

The Notes app is a fantastic jack-of-all-trades app that students can use to reflect, create, and share. Notes' embedded drawing tools can turn iPad into a digital whiteboard for students to respond with a drawing to a prompt. Using multimedia tools like photos and video can support creative "About Me" exercises, too!

Two quick icebreakers that I like to do is with the Photo Booth app or Camera app.

Photo Booth: use one of the fun filters, take a selfie, then annotate on top with words, pictures, etc. that describe you.

Camera App: send on mission for specific photos (ABC, texture, color, etc). Work solo or in small teams.
