|Assembly and settling down.

Hand over a puzzle of one category to all teachers as they come in.  

QR codes are stuck up in the lab and teachers join the WA group as soon as they come and share basic info in the group like their name, school, etc. And then we can give different puzzles to all teachers and ask them to share the solved puzzle in the group along with how they can modify it to make it relevant for their children.

Once they finish, they can pick up another puzzle of a different category.  

15 mins time to solve followed by a discussion on their experience of solving, how they approached the puzzle, which math concepts were used to solve the puzzle and how it can be contextualized for their students
