Warming Up Activity: “Would You Rather”
Warming up is an important part of every English lesson. It helps students get ready for learning, switch to English, and become more active and engaged. One of the most effective and enjoyable warming up activities is “Would you rather…?”
In this activity, students choose between two options and explain their choice. For example: Would you rather live in the mountains or by the sea? or Would you rather be invisible or be able to fly? These questions are fun, creative, and encourage students to think and speak in English.
This activity develops several important language skills. First, it improves speaking skills, as students express their opinions and give reasons. Second, it develops critical thinking, because students must choose and explain their preferences. Third, it helps expand vocabulary, as students learn new words and expressions while listening to others.
“Would you rather…?” also improves listening skills and builds confidence. Students learn to communicate in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere without fear of making mistakes.
In addition, this activity creates a positive classroom environment and increases students’ motivation. It is suitable for different age groups and language levels and can be used at the beginning of the lesson to activate students’ thinking and prepare them for further learning.
Warming up activities like “Would you rather…?” make English lessons more interactive, engaging, and effective.
