Icebreaker Bingo
Directions: In order to get to know each other, find people in the class for whom the facts
below are true. You can use one person for up to three squares, but not for any squares in
the same row, column, or diagonal. Because the point is to get to know people, there are
follow-up questions for some of the squares, and you need to fill out information for each
square on the pages attached. Good luck!
