create OR find and adapt a unique “ice-breaker” group activity for your use with students at the beginning of the year in your future classroom (and thus appropriate for your chosen age level). (If you are going into counseling, choose an icebreaker that you might choose for use with a new small therapy group.)
1) Citation for your resource (where did you find it or the inspiration for it, if you designed it yourself?)
2) What are the age and size of group for which this icebreaker is suitable?
3) Share the icebreaker, including procedures (how would you execute this in your classroom / clinical setting?) and any necessary materials / preparation work needed.
4) If you were to actually try this activity with a group, what potential roadblocks / problems could come up while doing the icebreaker (e.g., what if people don’t participate, or someone in the class doesn’t get along, etc.)?

What kind of cars did they drive? What were the hot political concerns? What did they consider “bad”? If they had one thing that they could have changed, what would that be? What are some favorite memories? etc…. Can they offer advice?
