Interesting questions to ask fellow high schoolers?

I'm part of a student group that's hosting a virtual get-together for our high school. What are some interesting and engaging questions we could use to break the ice and get everyone talking?

It's great that you're organizing a virtual get-together for your high school to help students connect and engage with one another! Here are some interesting and engaging icebreaker questions to encourage conversation during your event:

1. If you could have dinner with any historical figure or celebrity, who would you choose and why?

2. What is a hobby or skill you've always wanted to learn, and why does it interest you?

3. What is the most memorable trip or vacation you've taken, and what made it special?

4. If you could have any superpower, what would you choose and what would you do with it?

5. What was the last book you read or movie you watched that left a lasting impression on you? What did you like about it?

6. If you could transform into any animal, which one would you pick and why?

7. What is one song that you can't help but dance or sing along to when you hear it?

8. If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and what would you do there?

9. What's a strange or unique talent you have that most people might not know about?

10. If you were given a million dollars, how would you spend or invest it?

11. If you could add a subject or elective to your school's curriculum, what would it be and why?

12. Share your favorite or most memorable moment from high school so far.

13. If you had to describe yourself in three words, which words would you choose?

You can use these questions as conversation starters during small group discussions or in a larger group setting where each person takes turns answering a question. Remember to encourage open-mindedness, active listening, and a welcoming atmosphere so that everyone feels comfortable participating. Have fun and enjoy the conversations!
