Changing me

Shared ‘The jigsaw charter’ with the children to reinforce how we work together.

Calm me

At the beginning of every jigsaw lesson we help our minds calm down so that we are ready to learn.

Gave each of the children a task card. Asked the children if any of them to complete the card individually by ticking in the relevant box if they think it is a male/female/either role. Then I asked children to compare their answers with a talking partner. Asked the children to compare the similarities/differences they have and to explain why they have come up with their ideas.
