Puzzles are good way to develop students' minds and encourage cognitive development. Puzzles provide that key opportunity to develop a child's brain by manipulating the world around them. Children learn to work directly with their environment and change its shape and appearance when they work with puzzles. I will use these puzzles for indoor recess time on inclement weather days. I believe puzzle time will be more beneficial to my students than watching a movie or doing a coloring page. I think this will give my students chances to work together and enhance social interactions with in my class.
