COMMENTS FROM BUYERS:
❤️ It's a great resource to have for morning meetings. Heard from another teacher today that the kids were still discussing the question when they arrived in her class later that day. It definitely had them thinking deeply about their answers.
❤️ My students beg me to bring these cards out. The best deal ever!
❤️ Great topics for discussion and friendly debate in my social skills class! My students love these!"
❤️ I've learned so much about my students while listening to their discussions.
❤️ Love these! We've used these at the beginning of our staff developments.
❤️ I'm excited to have a new way of kids getting to reacquaint themselves with old friends.
These are not silly Would You Rather questions. They are intended for more thought-provoking discussions to help your students gain more insight as they reflect and share with one another. And... it's fun!
*************************
These WOULD YOU RATHER discussion cards promote critical thinking, analysis, imagination, and effective communication skills - and they're fun in the process. While there are no right or wrong responses, these questions stimulate self-reflection and examination of others' viewpoints.
****************************
WAYS TO USE THESE CARDS:
1. Class Discussion: Discuss sitting as a class in a circle. (Circle of Power and Respect)
2. Partners or Small Groups: Give a WYR card to partners or small groups and give them time to discuss. Then rotate the cards and discuss the new hypothetical choices.
3. Concentric Circles: Arrange students in concentric circles. Project a card and give students time to think. Then start the discussions. Rotate after one minute.
4. Written Responses: Project the prompt, have students write their responses and reasons, and then discuss as a whole class.
5. Take a Side: Project the prompt and ask students to take a stand by going to one side of the room or the other. Have each side meet to discuss their main supporting reasoning and then have a spontaneous, friendly debate.
6. Chart Reasoning: Create a large t-chart with the two choices. Break into groups of four to discuss. Have a recorder for each choice, write supporting reasons, and/or draw a star by similar supporting reasons on the chart. Post the chart and discuss.
