[@mikouhuru766]

Excellent and thorough presentation.

[@angelafernandez9755]

I truly like your videos and the time to explain each one of the type of circles we can implement. I found your website extremely resourceful, thank you!!

[@mooimanconsulting]

Awesome, thank you!

I would love to hear your feedback on how to facilitate circles in this unprecedented time. At a time where there are many restrictions that must be in place to meet the needs of student and staff safety what other ways can we implement Classroom Circles since we cannot share talking pieces or sit in circles?

Good point, Angela! I have a circle script called "Welcome Back from Quarantine" that offers a couple options! Go to lauramooiman.com/resources and download it for free!
