Circle Forward - Building a Restorative School Community Book - Restorative Practices Supplemental Book
The appendix in Circle Forward (provided to staff in Restorative Practices) offers a guide to the Circles, helping educators implement the practice effectively across different grade levels. The book serves as a supplemental resource for staff using Circle practices with TK-8 students.
The updated edition includes a new module, Module 14, titled "Moving Toward Racial Equity: Starting with Adults." However, this module will not be used in our district, as the book was purchased specifically for Circle practices with TK-8 students.
A sticker will be placed on all current and future books in the system to indicate this. The Circles selected for your classes should be age-appropriate and tailored to the specific needs of your classroom. The appendix at the back of the book serves as a guide for determining age-appropriateness, as some modules are intended for high school students and adults only.
