Here’s a really good task that you can use with your class at the start of the year or the start of a semester with a new class to get to know them, without following the same old “write me a letter about who you are” format.

When I used this task with my class, I asked students to talk about 2-4 different topics/beliefs, to allow them to cover enough of a variety of topics, yet still provide enough room for them to explain these beliefs in detail.
