Would you rather...?

In Year 1 we have been practising our 'oracy' (speaking and listening) skills. We are learning how to show active listening by looking at the speaker, asking questions and building on their ideas. We are also learning how to express our ideas clearly using our voice and gestures. Here we are discussing 'Would you rather... eat only broccoli for the rest of your life or only cake for the rest of your life?'.

"If you ate broccoli for the rest of your life you might turn green!"

"I'd rather eat broccoli for the rest of my life because it's very healthy even though it's a bit yucky."

"I wonder if you could have cake with broccoli in and then you could still eat cake but it would be healthier."
