morning circle
Daily group meeting
Morning circle is a daily gathering in early childhood classrooms where children and teachers sit together, usually in a circle on the floor, to start the day.
Activities typically include greetings, songs, calendar review, and discussion of the day ahead.
The ritual builds classroom community and helps young children transition into structured learning: During morning circle, each child shares something about their weekend.
