beans
e
 Statistics
39% of boys become windy after
eating beans.

9 out of 10 children enjoy beans

at least three times a week.

15 million cans of beans are eaten

in the United Kingdom every day.
Personal Example
James likes to eat beans. He eats
them four times a week. Sadly,
this has caused James to break
wind often, loudly and at
embarrassing times. His friends
have abandoned him. His family
have disowned him. Even his pet
tortoise rejected him. Beans have
destroyed a young and promising
life.
 Repetition
Without beans, the plate would be
a duller place. Without beans,
dinner would be a less tasty meal.
Without beans, chips would be
tasteless. Without beans, the
world would be a much quieter
place.
The Rule of Three
They are deliciously tasty,
incredibly healthy and sometimes
even musical.
Rhetorical Question
Who would want to live in a world
without beans?
 Group Work
Decide on group roles: scribes, leaders, reporters.

The leader must encourage everyone to be

involved and move the work along at the right
pace.

The scribe(s) must write down what the group

decides.

The reporter(s) must feed back to the class

There will be no changing roles and nobody is

allowed to do someone else’s job.
