Jigsaw

This week in Year two we have been focusing on trust in our Jigsaw session.

We thought about how we know if we can trust someone, for example are they a family member or a teacher.  We also discussed why it is important to know who is a trusted person. Lots of us thought that someone we trust is usually a kind, helpful and friendly person for example our friends or teachers.

We were given the task of sorting pictures of people into a trust circle and those we would not trust.  For example, lots of us said we would trust a policeman but we wouldn’t trust a stranger we didn’t know. We explained that a policeman is there to keep us safe and therefore, he should be trusted.

Finally, we drew a picture of three people who are in our trust circle, just in case we needed someone to tell a worry to. Lots of us said our parents at home, our teachers in school and one key friend in our year who we trust.

Take a look at some pictures of us below:

How to help at home: 

  • Talk about trust at home – who can the children trust outside of school?
  • Create a trust exercise game such as falling into each others arms (ensure this is with a supervising adult)
