by Jenny Mosley (Author)
This book provides educators with guidance on using a Circle Time intervention approach to help foster a calmer classroom, support children's mental health and enable effective teaching and learning.
Jenny Mosley introduces the Circles of Support system: a trauma-sensitive model which can be used to help primary-aged children struggling with emotional regulation to recognise and talk about their emotions and judge whether how they are behaving is appropriate and proportionate in the classroom. Revised throughout, this new edition includes:
- An introduction to what circles of support are and how to establish them.
- Strategies to prevent classroom disruption with advice for reinforcing safe boundaries.
- Case studies of success stories along with extensive lesson plans for embedding circles of support into your setting.
- Suggestions for how staff can support each other, as well as an overview of available professional support.
Essential reading for any teacher with a lively classroom, this book will also appeal to those hosting breakfast and afterschool clubs, youth workers, social workers and special educational needs coordinators.
