First Day

Big Idea: Getting to know my classmates and having fun

After today I should be able to: find the agenda for each day in AVID and access the AVID Google Classroom.

Agenda:

1. Bookmark AVID blog
2. Join AVID Google Classroom
3. First day of school slides
4. Photo scavenger hunt. I will break you into teams of four. You need to be the first team to take the following photos and post them to our Padlet wall:
1. Spell the word AVID using your bodies
2. Take a photo with someone from the office where everyone is serious but one person
3. Do jazz hands in front of one of the classroom doors
4. Recreate a meme
5. Pretend to be statues by the lunch tables
6. Take a picture with flowers
7. Mirror a staff member: find a staff member and have everyone striking the same pose
8. Invisible Rope: Pretend to hold an "invisible rope" and have your team members act like they're being pulled in opposite directions.
9. T-Rex Arms: Take a group photo where everyone has their arms tucked in like T-Rex arms, making a humorous scene.
10. Upside Down Reading: Capture a photo of someone pretending to read a book or newspaper upside down in a library or study area.
11. Shadow Puppets: Create amusing and recognizable shadow puppets on a wall or surface using your hands.
12. Mystery Investigator: Pose as detectives investigating a "crime scene" (it could be a spilled drink or a fallen backpack).
13. Invisible Hula Hoop: Capture a picture of someone twirling an "invisible" hula hoop around their waist.
14. Frog Leap: Capture a mid-air shot of someone leaping across a pathway as if they were a frog.
15.  Human Knot: Form a human knot with your team members and take a photo before trying to untangle yourselves.
16. Extreme Reading: Find unexpected or humorous places to read a book.
17. Find something round and pretend it's a crystal ball
