Since last week I’ve been teaching and at the end of the day I have 30 minutes (at least) of extra time. I don’t know what I’m forgetting to teach or if the kids are getting faster (and maybe smarter) but I have used it to have puzzle time…the kids love it. they seem to always pick the same ones—we have a big round globe floor puzzle and I have just found a map of Africa…I think we are going to need more puzzle time actually. So I sat down with some of the puzzles that the kids never get out…hundred pieces—one is a soccer team on a bus, another is Simba and Mufasa from the Lion King…I am trying to get the strategy of putting the straight edge pieces together for a frame—lining up the straight ones isn’t in their sphere of puzzle solving…and then putting like colors together to see if the pieces fit. Slowly slowly we are getting there. Pang’ono pang’one ndi mtolo.
