If you had a magic wand, what would you do with it? Who hasn't thought about that? I wish for one every time I clean my house.

Pass a magic wand around your classroom as an icebreaker when students are introducing themselves or when discussion is dead, and conjure up some creative ideas and maybe even a few hearty laughs. Laughter cures almost everything.

Share your favorite icebreakers in the forum, and tell us about your most-dreaded icebreakers.
