    We love this resource in the classroom. I love that it can be used to get to know the students, as a brain break, or even opportunities for speech therapy. This is always a good activity for the students and teachers. The students love to engage with this activity. This one is great for even our non speaking friends. They are able to make a choice and we all get to know each other a bit better. This is one of our go to brain breaks in the self contained classroom. I have also used in my homeroom for general education students as well. These are great for all learners.

  56. Sarah M. –

    My fifth graders LOVED this. It was so simple and yet it help them realized some similarities with each other. A common phase that could be heard from students they do not hang out with or who are shy, “Hey, I did not know you liked video games over cellphones! What is your favorite?” And this is how it happens for the many different slides! I plan to use this every year now!

  57. Cynthia R B. –

    We did the first one as a group so I could model for my students (all are struggling learners). They really liked the variety of questions. Hearing their different reasons made some of them want to change their answer. I love a good “argument” of why they made their choice. It was also helpful that pictures of real objects/events were used.

  58. Michele C. –

    My students enjoyed this every morning as a do now after they copied their homework. Required them to think and express themselves on paper.

  59. Brandi B. –

    I use this in the mornings to take attendance. Students love the “Would You Rather” and it really helps so I don’t have to come up with so many on my own.
