This lesson 'Six blind men and an elephant' is based on a famous poem by John Godfrey Saxe. Six blind men meet an elephant for the first time and each man touches a different part of the elephant and makes predictions about what the elephant is like. The sequence and activities could be spread over two or three lessons depending on the amount of detail you wish to go into.

Read Chia Suan Chong's blog post to find out more about how can we become more reflective teachers.
