My Project

My students would benefit from doing jigsaw puzzles in the classroom. It will be easier for them to work on them and store the works in progress with the puzzle trays.

Their visual spatial skills, organizational skills and patterning skills can be enhanced through puzzles.

These skills are crucial life skills that can be difficult to teach and practice. The use of puzzles is a fun, engaging and very educational activity for learners of all ages. It is even more beneficial when the puzzles contain academic themes. We will explore the world, animal habitats, math and art through puzzles .
