This afternoon, the children were challenged with a group jigsaw puzzle activity which gave them a clue about what our new topic is going to be. While completing their individual jigsaw was the aim, they also needed to help the rest of their group complete their puzzle without talking! Taking turns and working cooperatively were key skills needed.
‘I felt it went well as our table helped each other to complete their jigsaws.’
‘We swapped pieces that we knew would help others to finish their puzzle.’
Finally, the clues were revealed and we found out our new topic is based on the Katie and … series of books by James Mayhew. We can’t wait to get started on this art themed topic.
