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.

We played a game called ‘switch’ children sat in a circle and asked to switch places if : you’ve lost something that was important to you, you have helped somebody else find something they have lost, etc.

Read the story ‘Goodbye mousie’

Story was about a boy who lost his pet, and how he deals with this loss. Children were then asked what feeling did the boy  feel in the story? Why do you think he felt these feelings ?
