Our Teamwork Puzzle!

Last week our class read the book, Swimmy, by Leo Lionni, and over the past several days we have been putting together a teamwork puzzle. If you aren't familiar with Swimmy, it is a wonderful book about a group of tiny fish who learn to swim together, looking like one giant fish, so that they can swim through the ocean without being eaten. They chase the bigger fish away! Each little fish is an important piece of the the big shape. We created a giant fish puzzle on poster paper and worked together as a team to put it together. This helped us to work as a team and to see that if any of us were missing, the puzzle would be incomplete. We are all important team members in our first grade class! There is a photo of our puzzle below. Come see it this Thursday at our Open House!
