Lesson Plan
You can turn a page related to any subject of study into a fun puzzle by laminating it and cutting it into a few pieces. For a classroom of 30 students, you might use six images that are cut into five pieces each. Select pages from magazines or calendars. Laminate the pages and cut them into pieces. Mix the pieces of the puzzles and give one piece to each child. The students work together to find corresponding pieces and assemble the puzzles. The first group to have a complete puzzle is the winner.
Variations
Assessment
All groups of students should form a complete puzzle.
