“…Likewise, in a study of 2,929 children who previously attended Head Start, only 8% qualified for special education services in their kindergarten year, with the majority (70%) qualifying as speech/language impaired. More severe disability categories (e.g., emotional disturbance, intellectual disability, and developmental delay) were assigned to only 1%-5% of these children in kindergarten (Redden et al, 2001). Although rates of more impairing disabilities are naturally lower in the kindergarten year, the overall low rate of special education placement for former Head Start participants suggests the program buffers the effects of risk on long-term developmental trajectories.…”

“…Second, it is imperative that more research be conducted that examines child outcomes as a function of transition preparation and practices. The kindergarten transition intervention literature for students with disabilities is sparse, with only one large-scale comprehensive study conducted investigating the impact of transition programming on child outcomes (Redden et al, 2001). In the general education literature, only three studies have investigated child outcomes linked to transition preparation and activities for students attending schools in the United States (LoCasale-Crouch et al, 2008;Schulting et al, 2005;Wildenger & McIntyre, 2012).…”

“…Το ίδιο συμβαίνει για τα παιδιά που προέρχονται από άλλη χώρα ή λόγω πιθανής αλλαγής περιοχής διαμονής βιώνουν πολλές μεταβάσεις καθώς και για τα παιδιά που δεν έχουν προσχολική εμπειρία. Άλλωστε, η διεθνής βιβλιογραφία έχει καταγράψει προβλήματα προσαρμογής που εμφανίζονται στις παραπάνω ομάδες παιδιών (Σακελλαρίου, Στράτη & Αναγνωστοπούλου, 2015α ▪ Bates, Mastrianni, Mintzer, Nicholas, Furlong, Simental, & Greif, 2006▪ Daley, Munk, & Carlson, 2011▪ Dockett & Perry, 2007▪ Dunlop & Fabian, 2007▪ Fowler, Hains, & Rosenkoetter, 1990▪ Fowler, Schwartz, & Atwater, 1991▪ Hains, Rosenkoetter, & Fowler, 1991▪ Kamerman & Gatenio, 2003▪ Lovett, & Haring, 2003▪ Pang, 2008▪ Pang, 2010▪ Peters, 2010▪ Redden, Forness, Ramey, Ramey, Brezausek, & Kavale, 2001▪ Rous & Hallam, 2006▪ Rous, Myers, & Stricklin, 2007▪ Sayers, 2012▪ Welchons & McIntyre, 2017 Με βάση τα αποτελέσματα, διαπιστώσαμε ότι η θετική αντίληψη των παιδιών για τον παιδικό σταθμό και το νηπιαγωγείο και ο βαθμός αυτονομίας και ανεξαρτησίας είναι τα βασικότερα κριτήρια μιας επιτυχημένης μετάβασης για τους παιδαγωγούς προσχολικής ηλικίας του δείγματός μας, ενώ οι προ-ακαδημαϊκές γνώσεις και οι δεξιότητες επίλυσης συγκρούσεων βρίσκονται στις τελευταίες θέσεις των επιλογών τους. Επιπλέον, οι νηπιαγωγοί φαίνεται να δίνουν μεγαλύτερη βαρύτητα στη μαθησιακή περιοχή κοινωνική και προσωπική ανάπτυξη του παιδιού καθώς ιεραρχούν τις κοινωνικές δεξιότητες πιο ψηλά σε σχέση με τους βρεφονηπιαγωγούς.…”
