Circle Time for Empowering
CIRCLE TIME for empowering: After Discipline session on "ACCEPTANCE" at geneikids we felt the need of "Empowering" kids to come out with tier own solutions. We do circle time but with time it is diluting and becoming a tool to start the session, and end the session or faculty talking about what kids can do and cannot do.
Just for reference and revision here is the presentation of Circle time.
The whole essence of Circle time" was missing - that CT is a tool to empower not to correct behavioral issues.
We went thru CT process and activities and realize that KIDS need to
- come out with their own solutions.
- need to realized by talking freely
- Faculty need to address issue not only TALK - sometime one to or sometime in group
- The group needs to come out with solution not he faculty

We are using circle time when aunty sings circle time and we all come and sit together, once most of us are sitting others will call the ones still not in circle by saying please come and settle down we are waiting. We discuss our schedule for the day or as each activity is going to happen. We decide the acceptable and non acceptable things in circle time. Encouraging children to clal fro circle time if they want to discuss anything.
