Synopsis

This book reviews the history of the entrance-age debate and presents current views on the concept of school readiness. Special features include a discussion of the transition room for the "at-risk" child, the social and emotional adjustment of "young-for-age" children, and the assessment of readiness in the schools. There is a review of intervention approaches found to be of value with young children and a discussion of retention for the young child. A unique feature of the book is the inclusion of the reactions of parents to current school practices and assessment practices. A chapter also is included that discusses legal and ethical issues involved in school readiness practices.
