I really felt like this was a perfect time to share the Circle of Courage because we are beginning to learn about creating communities in our classroom. I am a huge believer in the core values of this wheel, so I thought it would be nice to share. If you are interested in finding out more information, you can visit Circle of Courage or Circle of Courage - wiki.
(please note that you are really not supposed to write within the circle itself)
We use something very similar in our 'Health is Life in Balance' Diabetes curriculum. It's a health curriculum, but it uses culturally relevant literature to convey the message instead cold scientific fact.
ReplyDeleteCommunity is a theme I work with all year because it is so important for this school. I'm going to have to borrow this and incorporate it in my classroom.
I like this. I want to borrow it too. The Navajo Philosophy of learning is similiar. I will post it on my blog so you can see. Thanks for sharing.
