Summary:

This book provides a framework for all kindergarten teachers to use to support young children in their transition to kindergarten. It offers an overview of the importance of this transition for young children, and shows how their success can be supported through the use of specific supports. The topics covered here include the various ways to involve children and their families, use assessment information, and use a collection of strategies for children based on their needs. The book is comprehensive in covering a multitude of needs children and their families may have, from basic support needs to creative and tailored ways to involve families, and to using specific social skills templates to teach and support social skills for young children. The final chapter of the book also addresses the need to determine children who need more focused supports, and provides concrete strategies to use for children with more intensive needs.
