Find a Friend Who - End of Year Activities

Looking for a fun, low-prep activity to wrap up the school year?

This Find a Friend Who game is the perfect blend of movement, laughter, and classroom connection! Students walk around the room, chatting with classmates to find someone who matches each prompt (like “has a pet” or “can whistle”) and write their name in the box. The twist? They have to find a different person for each square, no duplicates allowed!

Ways to Use:

• Icebreaker or end-of-year celebration activity

• Morning work or early finisher option

• Team-building exercise

• Indoor recess or fun Friday treat

Advantages:

• Encourages communication and active listening

• Builds classroom community and friendships

• Gets students up and moving

• Promotes inclusion and social-emotional skills

• Easy to print and go, no prep needed!

• Great for all elementary levels

This is a lighthearted, engaging way to help students reflect, laugh, and connect before the final bell rings. Plus, it gives you five glorious minutes to breathe while they’re busy finding someone who loves broccoli or can do a cartwheel. Enjoy the chaos, in the best way!
