BACK-TO-SCHOOL - Boba Tea About Me Icebreaker Activity

Start the school year with a fun and engaging icebreaker your students will love! The Boba Tea About Me activity lets students share their interests, favorites, and personality in a creative way—by filling boba tea “pearls” with words that describe them.

Perfect for Grades 1–8, this activity works well for:

• First week of school
• Morning meetings
• Advisory or homeroom
• All About Me projects
• Classroom community building
• Art-integrated activities

How it works:

1. Students write their name at the top of the cup.
2. Inside each pearl, they write one thing about themselves (favorite foods, hobbies, music, pets, sports, etc.).
3. They color each pearl a different color for a bright, personalized design.
4. Optional: Students share their finished cups with a partner or the class.
