Would You Rather Wheel
Would you rather questions are the fastest way to get a quiet class talking. There is no wrong answer, so shy students can join in, and every choice comes with a reason to explain. This wheel holds 40 kid-friendly questions, from silly ones like spaghetti hair or marshmallow feet to thoughtful ones like talking to animals or speaking every language. Spin one at the start of the day, ask students to stand on one side of the room for each answer, and invite a few to say why. Change the list in Edit entries to suit your class.
How to use it
- The wheel is ready with 40 entries. Press Spin, click the wheel or press Space, and the result appears in the middle.
- Open Edit entries to change the list for your class, or press Use my class instead to spin your students' names.
- Press Present (or F) to show just the wheel on the board. Turn on Take winners off the wheel in Settings if you don't want repeats.
Ways to use it in class
- Four corners: point to two sides of the room, let students walk to their choice, then hear one reason from each side.
- Turn and talk for 60 seconds, then take a quick show of hands to see how the class split.
- Writing warm-up: students answer in three sentences with at least one "because", a gentle way into persuasive writing.

Questions teachers ask
Can I change what's on the wheel?
Yes. Open Edit entries to add, remove or reword anything, one entry per line. Your changes last until you leave the page, and Restore brings back the original list.
Can I spin my students' names instead?
Yes. Press Use my class instead to swap the entries for your saved class, with absent students left off. Press the back button in the same place to return to this wheel's entries.
Is every entry equally likely?
Yes. The result is chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator before the wheel moves, and every slice has the same chance. Turn on Take winners off the wheel in Settings to avoid repeats.
Will ads show on my projector?
No. Press Present (or F) and the screen shows only the wheel and the Spin button, in large type for the back of the room.
