We started today’s jigsaw lesson with the Calm Me exercise to prepare ourselves to learn.

Then we sat in a circle and played a game called ‘Switch’. A statement was read out which applied to more than one child in the circle. Those children then switched places with each other amusing them to see what they have in common with each other.

During the Open My Mind section, a washing line was fastened across one side of the class to the other. At one end we attached ‘Agree’, the other we attached ‘Disagree’ and in the middle we attached ‘Not sure’. A list of statements were read out and the children moved to the appropriate answer on the washing line.
