Yesterday we started our jigsaw lesson with the Calm Me exercise to prepare ourselves to learn.

In small groups the children were given a blank learning charter template and asked to teach a consensus on what should be on it. They filed in the rights, responsibilities, rewards, and consequences that would be most meaningful to them.

The children then returned to the circle and shared their ideas. The teacher then enabled the class to come up with one learning charter and they competed a template for this. This template will then be passed onto the school council as our class contribution towards the new learning charter.
