Class Meetings by Emily Vance
Empower Children to Become a Community of Learners Written by a teacher for teachers, this practical book offers teachers everything they need to know about what class meetings are, how to get started, and how to adapt the approach to their changing classrooms. Class meetings have many different names--group time, gathering time, community circle, morning meeting--and take just as many forms. The focus in this book is on using this part of the classroom day for resolving conflicts, coconstructing problem-solving strategies, and making the classroom a safe, positive environment so that children in preschools, kindergartens, and the primary grades can channel their energy into constructive interactions and learning.
"As long as early childhood professionals continue to gather children for the sake of learning, class meetings will be an important topic" —Karen Cairone, Devereux Center for Resilient Children
Emily Vance, PhD, has more than 35 years' experience teaching young children as well as college and university methods and education courses.
