Modifications
So What?? Jigsaw allows the students to own their learning and gives them the opportunity to show off their knowledge. If they
do
all
the
work
necessary,
its
a
great
confidence
builder
for
students
to
be
able
to
research
a
topic,
present
it
to
their
friends/peers,
and
know
that
they
just
taught
them
something.
