The Circle Book. By Jenny Mosley.
Circle Time. By Beverley Beattie, Mary Blease and Bridgeen O'Neill. (both Positive Press, 7 each, 01225 719204)
Reviewed by Marian Whitehead, language and early years consultant
Here are two more publications from the rapidly growing Circle Time project. The Circle Book is a taster of the ideas and activities to be found in Jenny Mosley's books and training courses. This makes it a rather disjointed 'read', crammed with a mix of useful strategies, celebratory feedback and publicity for the author's catalogue of materials and training opportunities.
Circle Time is a practical book of 30 lesson plans from a team working in a Belfast school with boys in Key Stages 1 and 2 and focusing on behavioural issues. The Jenny Mosley Quality Circle Time Model, as it is known, sets out to enhance children's and adults' self-esteem and create a positive school ethos.
