Promoting inclusive practices is a priority in early childhood classrooms. How do we ensure that we are inclusive during one of the most important parts of this part of the daily routine….circle time? It is through setting up a welcoming environment that honors diversity that supports the commitment to the practices of inclusion.

In this interactive workshop, educators will have the opportunity to participate in an inclusive gathering time and gain ideas to bring into their classrooms. We will discuss the purpose behind an inclusive gathering time and why it is an important part of our daily routine. Educators will have opportunity to explore ideas and perspectives about what makes a circle time inclusive, where all children’s needs are met and respected. Participants will be given the chance to reflect on personal practices, share what inclusion looks like and means to them and consider how they can infuse this into their own gathering times.
