Back to School Activity - Cake Layers Get to Know You Digital Assignment
Use this digital back to school activity during the first days of school to truly get to know your students beyond surface-level introductions. This assignment invites students to reflect on who they are using the metaphor of a tiered cake — because just like a layered cake, each person is made up of different parts that come together to create something unique. In this fun activity, students dig a little deeper as they explore different “layers” of their identity, interests, values, and goals. It’s a thoughtful yet fun way to build classroom community while giving you insight into who is sitting in front of you this year.
This is a digital resource, and students complete all the work on the computer. This works well with distance learning, 1:1 classrooms, remote teaching, Google Classroom, or online education.

Included In This Layers of My Life Digital Back To School Activity:
➡️ The Layers Of My Life Digital Assignment: In this engaging digital back to school activity, students complete a tiered cake graphic organizer that represents the different layers of their personality. Each layer prompts students to reflect and write about specific aspects of themselves, including two words that describe them, their favorite subject, their family, their goals, and their hobbies and interests. The structured template gives students clear guidance while still allowing room for creativity and self-expression. Once finished, students can color and personalize their cakes, creating a vibrant and meaningful classroom or hallway display that celebrates the unique “ingredients” each student brings to your class.
