Prompt ideas for Morning Meeting:

Students can pre-think of answers for the next day or think on the spot.

  1. Share a meme or gif that’s helped you laugh during this time, send it to your advisors and we may share it during MM.

  2. Tell a joke:
    “Can I tell you a vegan joke? I promise it won’t be cheesy!”

  3. What’s one thing you learned or enjoyed during remote/online learning yesterday?

  4. Comment on something you think could help remote learning work better.

  5. Choose a fun picture of something your family is doing during this time and send it to your advisor.

  6. Name something that’s different or special that you did over the weekend during this “new normal?”

  7. Now that most of us have a lot more time to read, what’s one book you highly recommend?

  8. Tell us something that you miss about having school in person.

  9. Is there anything about remote learning that has surprised you?

Imagine students as the hosts of their own podcast! Maybe they could tell a story, perhaps about a childhood memory or something they learned in remote classes. Maybe they could interview guests about a topic you’re exploring about a news-related issue, a hobby, passion, or concern? Maybe they could have a conversation — about pop culture, sports, food, fashion, technology, politics,with a friend or family member. Here are 1,000-plus topics.
