Music and Circle Time: Using Music

Music and Circle Time follows the same popular and accessible style as Margaret Collins′ established and successful Circle Time series. This book provides user-friendly classroom activities to engage young children.

It uses Circle Time techniques to help children use and learn about:

• Rhythm, jingles, raps and chants
• Songs
• Instruments
• Ring games
• Music, art and story projects

The enjoyable activities can also enhance learning of other aspects of the curriculum. There is evidence that children who are familiar with a wide-ranging repertoire of rhymes and songs learn to read earlier.

Using this book all teachers will be able to implement music in their Circle Time sessions in a confident and creative manner.
