CIRCLE

The Center for Improving the Readiness of Children for Learning and Education

TEA Grant

The Texas Education Agency funded teacher training, child assessment, and mentoring for sites across Texas. Mentor/facilitators receive five days of training on the eCIRCLE online course and PDA assessments. CIRCLE staff provides a two day language and literacy training for teachers in the project. The teachers continue their professional development by attending and participating in the eCIRCLE online course.

CIRCLE consultants, site mentor/facilitators, and teachers work closely to improve all areas of the classroom. Each site is mandated to have a strong language and literacy curriculum in place as a component of this grant.
