As a school and as a classroom, we place a high value on our Restorative Circle time. As a teacher, it's my favorite time of our day. It's a time for us to focus, share, set goals for our day, build and define character, and share about what is motivating us or possibly hindering us as we approach each new school day. Through this practice, children learn oral speaking skills and how to listen intentionally. For some children, this platform comes easily. Others need more encouragement to both share with the group, or project their voice. Still, we often can't hear our quieter friends as they share thoughtful responses. The QBall Wireless Microphone offers us a chance to be more interactive, making sure every student in our circle can be heard. It is durable, purposeful, and fun! We are excited to add this to our circle time, and incorporate it into classroom instruction as well!
