Children's Transition to Kindergarten.
Maxwell, Kelly L.; Eller, Susan K.
Young Children, v49 n6 p56-63 Sep 1994
Reviews research on young children's transition to kindergarten. Looks at three factors that affect early school adjustment: (1) children's skills and school-related experiences, including social skills, play behavior, and prior experience with peers; (2) parental influences, such as expectations and parent-child interactions; and (3) classroom characteristics, such as developmentally appropriate versus developmentally inappropriate practices.
