Using Transitions To Promote Literacy in Preschool and Primary Classrooms.
Petersen, Diane
Young Children, v55 n4 p24-26 Jul 2000
Describes how classroom transition times may be used to augment and complement a literacy program in a primary school classroom. Focuses on singing songs for transition which are added to a reading notebook, reading short engaging picture books which are displayed for later reading, and playing games to introduce a new unit of study or change the classroom pace.
