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.

Relationships

In small groups gave children a sheet of paper with feelings shown there. Asked children to discuss and identify which ones they might feel as part of a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship.

Children had to think about why and in what circumstances they might have any of these feelings. Children highlighted those that they thought were relevant to them.

Children then had to focus on one of the uncomfortable feelings  – jealousy. Through questions and answers, teased out the way this feeling may come into play.
