Transition Classes, a Growing Concern.
Patton, Mary Martin; Wortham, Sue Clark
Journal of Research in Childhood Education, v8 n1 p32-42 Fall-Win 1993
Examined the extent of extra-year programs for kindergarten students in Texas school districts; identified procedures and curricular interventions; and established the growth trend of these classes statewide. Found that 39% of the 285 school districts responding had transition classes, and the trend for the state at-large appeared to be one of growth. (WP)
