Regardless of their age, all students love a puzzle - learning and fun at the same time! (learning and satisfaction at completing a challenging puzzle at the same time!) Motivate and enthuse your students with these six differentiated jigsaw puzzles (1 text puzzle and 5 image puzzles) which have the advantage of combining learning about St. Nicholas with the enjoyment of playing.

When and how to use this resource
The puzzles are suitable to be used as part of the lesson ‘St. Nicholas – the truth and the legend’ during class activities, for revision or as a stand-alone activity. Pupils can work on them individually, in pairs or in mixed-ability groups.

All you need to do is to print off the puzzle (as many copies as you need), laminate them for durability, cut them out carefully to ensure close matching and finally, put the pieces in envelopes. Each jigsaw puzzle is numbered-coded for organisational convenience. Please be aware that all image puzzles are graphic heavy and will require a colour printer and lots of ink!
