In yesterdays session we started off by sharing the ‘jigsaw charter’ with the children to reinforce how we work together.
We then played a ‘Blast Off’ game with the whole class. The game encouraged the class to work as a group and listen to each other. The better they worked as a team the more enjoyable the game became.
After the game was completed we worked through a ‘Calm Me’ activity. This helped the children to calm down so that they were ready to learn.
Next the children spent time looking at a PowerPoint that had pictures of British scenes. They then had to tell each other what thoughts came into their minds after looking at the picture.
