An Approach to Enhance Kindergarten Transition

The Kindergarten Transition Project at NCEDL has developed a school-based approach designed to enhance connections among children, families, teachers and peers during the transition to kindergarten. These connections can be important supports to children and families during this period of change and reflect recent attempts to describe what "ready schools" can do to ease transitions (National Education Goals Panel, 1997).
