Go FISH or Have You Got? Game Part II of III
This is part II of III. The first part said "Part 1 of 2" but the pictures on this set were larger so I had to split it into three parts.

Great way to finish off a group lesson with elementary school kids.

Introduce Yourself Online
For online classes this template works to allow students to introduce themselves to each other and the teacher. Family was left off since the group I planned to use it for might have had some family issues but it is editable. Remove "drink" for example and put in family.
