| Abstract: | Noting that changes in American society and in education over the last 20 years have contributed to the popularity of all-day, every-day kindergarten programs, this brochure discusses the trend toward full-day kindergarten and provides an overview of full-day versus half-day programs. Topics covered include: why the full-day trend, what the research shows, and what makes a full-day program effective. Sources for additional information are included. (HTH) |
