Hi, I am conducting an induction program for my junior students and I am looking for some ideas for induction games for new students. Can anyone suggest some types of games that can be played during the induction program? I believe this could be a good way to motivate the new entrants.

Hello Pooja,
It's great to hear that you are looking for ways to make your induction program more engaging and motivational for new students. Here are some game suggestions that you might consider:
1. Icebreaker Bingo
Create a Bingo card with a mix of personal characteristics, skills, or experiences that are likely to be shared by several students. Examples can include "has lived abroad", "plays a musical instrument", "has the same favorite book as you", etc. Students then mingle to find classmates who match the characteristics on their card, promoting interaction and connection.
2. Two Truths and a Lie
In this game, each student tells the group three things about themselves, two of which are true and one of which is a lie. The rest of the group then tries to guess which one is the lie. This game is a fun way to learn interesting facts about each other.
3. Team Building Challenges
Consider games that require students to work together to solve a problem or complete a task. Examples might include a simple puzzle, a scavenger hunt, or a building task with limited materials. These games can help to foster a sense of teamwork and collaboration.
4. Human Knot
Students stand in a circle and reach out to hold hands with two people across from them. The goal is then to untangle the group without letting go of each other's hands. This game promotes communication and problem-solving.
Remember, the goal of these games is not just to have fun, but also to help students get to know each other, build a sense of community, and reduce the anxiety that can come with entering a new environment. Be sure to choose games that are appropriate for your group and that align with your induction program's objectives.
Good luck with your induction program!
