Ready, set, go: Review of a kindergarten transition video series for teachers, parents, and children

Research output: Contribution to journalReview articlepeer-review

Abstract

As the number of children enrolling in kindergarten grows, so does the need to prepare them for this important milestone. National- and local-level policies promote kindergarten transition programs, which are often led by teachers. There is evidence in the literature to suggest that parent involvement also matters. The Ready, Set, Go! video series aims at building parent-teacher collaborations while helping preschool-age children get ready for the transition to kindergarten. This article is a product review of the video series. The review describes each video and its utility along with any limitations. The review also provides recommendations for addressing those limitations.
