    Preparation
    1. Place the Jigsaw Puzzle on the Table facing up. 
      • In certain jigsaw puzzle set, the base might have different colours, which is one of the indicator, prevent the learners from seeing that right from the start.
      • You might want to consider using cartoon-themed puzzle to mitigate the difficulties.
      • Remove few pieces of the puzzle and mix that into another puzzle.
    Instruction to Learners

    2. Complete the puzzle as fast as you can

    Execution

    1. Highlight that the only rule is to complete the puzzle as fast as possible.
    2. Observe and let the teams figure out what they want to do themselves.
    3. If time is short, you can terminate the game when the teams find out about the mixture and get their pieces back.

    Debriefing & Key Learning Pointers

    1. Ask about their experience and how are they feeling during the session.
    2. What's their immediate thoughts when they discovered about the mixture.
    3. Highlight on the following
      • When we are working on our individual task, don't get fixated and exchange with other teams to COLLABORATE, we might find some surprises that help us do our work better.
      • COMMUNICATE, we don't know what we don't know until we start to communicate and exchange with one another, open up.
      • Be CURIOUS and start to look around to explore for different things. How you can help and what help you need and share.
