This resource has been designed as a fun, ice-breaker activity for pupils. The activity is based on two questions - ‘Which would you choose?’ and ‘Would you rather?
Pupils are asked to make choices between two options. The resource contains five task sheets and an accompanying PowerPoint. The PowerPoint can be used to introduce the task and activities and to bring pupils together for discussion at the end of the activity.
Using these resources pupils get to find out more about themselves and each other. Each option gets pupils thinking about their preferences, thoughts and feelings on a wide variety of things. Some will be relatively quick and easy to answer. Others will require more thought. Some are designed to promote discussion. Several are to encourage reflection on values and attitudes towards what is important in life.
Suggestions for Use
Put the pupils in pairs or a small group and ask them to discuss each choice and to justify their choices (say why).
At the end of the activity bring the group together to discuss what options pupils have chosen. Ask pupils to explain their reasons for some of their choices. You could also analyse the number of pupils who chose each option.

Back to School - 110 Question PowerPoint Quiz
Back To School Ice Breaker - Would You Rather? Which Would You Choose?
This resource contains an engaging, 35-slide PowerPoint presentation that is ideal for an assembly. It asks pupils to choose between two things. Examples include:
Xbox or PlayStation
pizza or burger
Coronation Street or EastEnders
sweets or chocolate
Ed Sheeran or Shawn Mendes
football or rugby
The pupils are asked to make a choice between a white van or a red sports car. However, there is no sports car - as it is an ‘optical illusion’ - the car is ‘painted’ on the van.
Further optical illusions are introduced. There is also a hyperlink to an entertaining ‘optical illusion dance’ by teachers.
A pupil choice sheet is also included. The choices could be made in different ways, individually, with a partner or in a small group.
There are also slides about optical illusions which contain messages which could form the basis of new year’s resolutions on how we see and interact with others.
The main messages are:
What we see and what is actually happening is not always the same and sometimes we jump to wrong conclusions - as exemplified in images that appear to be moving but are not.
We do not always see things from other people’s point of view - as exemplified in the young lady / old woman image.
We do not always see the good things in people or situations - as exemplified in the ‘good / evil’ image.
We sometimes put ourselves first instead of others - as exemplified in the me/you illusion image.

This resource contains an engaging, fully editable, 35-slide PowerPoint presentation on the theme of optical illusions and the messages these illusions contain. This is an ideal New Year assembly or for use during anti-bullying week.
The introduction begins with students making choices between items that are popular eg. football teams, Xbox or PlayStation, pizza or burger, Coronation Street or EastEnders etc. This opening serves to engage the pupils. It leads on to a slide on which they are asked to make a choice between a white van or a red sports car. However, there is no sports car - as it is an ‘optical illusion’ - the car is ‘painted’ on the van. This leads into the ‘optical illusions’.
Further optical illusions are introduced. There is also a hyperlink to an entertaining ‘optical illusion dance’ by teachers.
The main messages of the presentation are:
What we see and what is actually happening is not always the same and sometimes we jump to wrong conclusions - as exemplified in images that appear to be moving but are not.
We do not always see things from other people’s point of view - as exemplified in the young lady / old woman image
We do not always see the good things in people or situations - as exemplified in the ‘good / evil’ image
We sometimes put ourselves first instead of others - as exemplified in the me/you illusion image.
This resource could be used for assemblies ( the situations could be further explored through role play and drama and included in the final assembly presentation), PSE lessons and tutor based activities - particularly useful if there have been some issues around the themes covered by the assembly.
