In 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:

o rhythm, jingles, raps and chants

o songs

o instruments

o ring games

o 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 use music in their Circle Time sessions in a confident and creative manner.

Margaret Collins is a former headteacher of infant and first schools. She is now Senior Visiting Fellow in the School of Education at the University of Southampton. She researches children?s perceptions of health education topics, writes teaching materials for children, books and articles on PSHE.
