Do you use WOULD YOU RATHER questions?

Would you rather ( or WYR) questions provide 2 desirable or undesirable choices. Such as

WOULD YOU RATHER STAY UP LATE OR GET UP EARLY?

Students reflect on the choices, evaluate each option, form their opinion and support their choice.

So WHY use these questions?

Because students can practice critical thinking skills such as :

⭐questioning

⭐reflecting

⭐evaluating

⭐forming an opinion

supporting an opinion

The best part is practicing critical thinking with Would You Rather is low stakes but high engagement.  

⭐ Using WYR questions can provide opportunities to reteach and remind students how to form and support an opinion. 

These opportunities help students build confidence with critical thinking skills. 

Students also have fun discussing answers with their classmates. 

⭐Finally discussing and learning to respect others’ opinions helps build respect and community
