Circle Time is a special time of day when you gather around to share stories, games, music and movement, fingerplays, and the introduction of new skills/activities. This may be done several times throughout the day, depending on the make-up of the class. In this course the teachers are provided with activities to enhance sensory experiences, auditory memory, language experiences, social and emotional development, and literacy skills, and numbers and operations. All activities are correlated to the state and national curriculum standards, and to the county adopted preschool assessment (creative curriculum).
