beach vs mountain 
hot cheetos vs takis (always one of the favorites)
reading vs movies

- A getting-to-know-you survey, where students can tell me about their interests, goals, favorite things, etc. so I can start the year with a better idea of who they are, and how to cater to and respect that
- A weekly Google form, where students can "check in" (not an assignment, but just a way to validate their feelings, make sure they're okay)

For virtual teaching this can be done through a Google Docs that only the teacher and the individual student will see. They can talk about how they're feeling on an academic level, but also if they are dealing with any personal stuff that they feel like sharing. Then the teacher can reply to students on the doc.
