Warm-up games help learners feel comfortable sharing their own ideas and supporting one another’s ideas. Games can be a great way to scaffold the risk-taking inherent in any creative process by building collaboration through play. Games can also support each learner’s mind and body focus, and can be low-stakes ways for learners to use their voice, make choices, make mistakes, affirm each other’s ideas, and work together to achieve a goal. Review the teaching tips for each game for detailed instructions on how to play and get recommendations for sequencing games to prepare for student writing time.
