About this event

A "good" Circle Time can set the tone for an early learning program's day, as it can set the stage for learning, offers the children opportunities for sharing and listening, and to experience many content areas within a supportive group environment. When not done well, Circle Time can be an in-effective, in-efficient time of the day because a teacher may have unrealistic expectations of the children.
