Every class is unique, with its own spirit, values, and energy. A class motto is a short and powerful phrase that represents who the students are and what they stand for. The Build a Class Motto SpinzyWheel helps students work together to create words that inspire teamwork, positivity, and pride in their classroom community.
When students spin the wheel, they receive prompts to guide the building of a motto. It might focus on kindness, learning, respect, or creativity. The activity allows everyone to contribute ideas, combine their voices, and agree on a motto that represents the whole group. Once finished, the class motto can be displayed on the wall, written in notebooks, or used as a cheer to unite everyone.
