Morning and Afternoon Nursery Sessions: Can They Be Equally Effective in Giving Children a Positive Start to School?
Davies, Julie; Brember, Ivy
International Journal of Early Years Education, v2 n2 p43-53 Fall 1994
Examined the effects of gender, attendance period, and age on 820 children's adjustment to nursery classes. Found that boys and afternoon attenders appeared to be less well adjusted to school than girls and morning attenders, and older children appeared better adjusted than the younger children. Results suggest strategies to help children adjust to school. (TJQ)
