This or That: Vibe Check Edition | Brain Break Slides
This or That: Vibe Check Edition is a fast-paced, movement-based activity that gets students thinking, choosing, and connecting—while giving their brains a break.
Each slide presents two options (like Pizza 🍕 or Tacos 🌮), and students move to the side of the room that matches their choice. It’s simple, flexible, and easy to use whenever the energy in the room needs a shift.
Low prep. High engagement. Easy to repeat.
