Transition refers to the process of change and
encompasses the events and experiences that occur when a
child moves from one setting to another. It also marks the
time when children are separated from a familiar routine
and environment and placed into an environment of
uncertainty, changing roles and expectations. Transitions
are important because children who experience continuity
with earlier educational experiences show increased moti￾vation, improved relationships with peers and adults, and
higher achievement. Recommendations outlined for chil￾dren and families include at school practices, at home
practices, increased advocacy for children, information
sharing, school tours, classroom visits, and on-going
communication between teachers and parents and among
family members.
