We've invented the full-circle learning wheel so you won’t have to reinvent the wheel! The items in this kit make it easy to start your own program. They are featured as one unit. Here are the steps to take to proceed ahead:

1. We've created samples of the Habits-of-Heart Songs: True Heroes music CD to give you a taste of the music and flavor of Full-Circle Learning. You can purchase and enjoy the CD with or without starting a program! Click here for details on the CD.
   
   
2. Consider enhancing your school, neighborhood or community project by becoming a Full-Circle Learning Partner. Three types of partnerships exist. It is essential that you take the Partnership Self-Assessment and give us information about the type of partner you might become, so we can tailor the kit to your individual needs. We can also provide information on consultation and customized onsite training, to help make your program a success.
   
   
3. If you are purchasing materials to start your own program, it is important to begin with the whole kit along with a charter and training package to ensure the success of your site. Descriptions of individual items are featured, so you will get an idea of some of the tools available to assist you as you meet your goals as a full-circle learning site.

4. We gladly accept tax-deductible cash donations to assist new or existing programs. We want to assure you that the price you pay if you are purchasing a kit is intended to cover the hard costs with any additional proceeds going directly back into the non-profit organization, to continue the work of translation, publication and assistance for new or existing full-circle learning programs or partnerships. We want to make every effort to make the materials available for those with limited resources, so contact the organization with your specific needs.

Complete the Partnership Self-Assessment. If you are interested in developing a Full-Circle Learning charter site, please email the board officers directly at board@fullcirclelearning.org. If you already have a site and need to reorder materials, see the list below, which includes lesson plan manuals for teachers, training videos and manuals for teacher trainers, and CDs and ancillary materials for use with students.

If you are browsing the site, please note that the music, conflict bridge and other elements are designed to enhance and reinforce the lesson plans, so they are not sold individually. Reordering opportunities are for those who already have current sites, except in the case of CDs.

Music can be purchased by anyone. To order these discounted other items, you must already be using the Full-Circle Learning program.
