So a little more even, but the vanillas have it. Now if you picked it and it looks like you have. Alright, so you are going to point if you chose vanilla. It kind of interesting how many people actually got this right.
This is a universal thing. Chitty chat with your partner now and also lock in what you predict for the group. You can never invest too much time inviting your group to interact and share, and this exercise has quickly become one of my most popular to achieve this goal. Take a look at Getting into Pairs for some fun ways to achieve this goal.
Small groups of two people work best in terms of sharing, but groups of no more than three or four people will work too. Explain that over the course of several rounds, you will invite each person — individually — to consider which one of two distinct often opposing choices they would make — if they had to. Sometimes the choice will be clear, while, at other times, you may need to encourage your group to choose the option they dislike the least.
Either way, they must make a choice. Give everyone a few moments to consider their choice, and then invite them to share their decision — and why — with their partner. This moment is critical, because it builds in a level of accountability for the next step. Now, invite each person to consider which preference they believe the majority of the whole group would choose. Naturally, it is entirely possible that an individual may choose one option, while believing the majority of their colleagues would choose the other.
Herein lies the value of this exercise — sometimes appearances can be deceiving. Again, ask everyone to share a prediction with their partner, and, importantly, why they have made this choice. Finally, ask for a split — invite each individual who chose one option eg Coke to step to the left of some imaginary line you have nominated, while those who chose the other eg Pepsi to step to the right.
On most occasions, a majority will have formed for everyone to see. Sometimes, it is enough to observe the split, and then move onto the next question. Here are four more questions to get you started you can download dozens more from the Resources tab:. Unless, of course, your whole objective is to explore the consequences of one choice versus another. Naturally, the group-split preference works much better if you ask each pair to not communicate with others in the group before making a decision.
Of course, it depends. Every choice we make depends on a variety of factors. When these words are uttered — and believe me, they will at some point — simply ask your group to consider each choice at face value, all things being equal.
In theory, a group that has accurately predicted their collective results more often than not, could be argued to have a good grasp of their values, abilities or interests.
But, this is not always the case. A lot depends on the sort of questions you ask, and the level of comfort people have about publicly sharing their values. Hats off to the team at Paradigm Shift who produce a set of laminated Must Choose cards to accompany the game. You can learn more about SEL and how it can support character education here. In a small way, you could argue that this exercise promotes mindfulness to the extent that it involves many opportunities for self-contemplation but this would be considered a minor attribute belonging to Must Choose.
