Personal Research Journey

I have spent the past 5 years in kindergarten land. I personally believe that kindergartner is it's own world when it comes to education. I have taught half-day programs and full day programs, in upper-middle class and lower class. I have seen many different outcomes from the different programs that is why I wanted to take a closer look into building a successful kindergarten education.

The topic that I have chosen to look deeper into is how preschool or education before kindergarten can effect the outcome of a child's success. So far I have been reading articles about different types of education before children enter school. After filling out the research chart I have found that I am really going to have to make a timeline for myself and stick to it to make sure that I am not rushing through the research and finding the most accurate information possible.

Does anyone else have personal feeling towards education before kindergarten? What are your personal experiences with this subject matter? Do you have any resources that you would like to share on this topic that you have found helpful and meaningful?

  1. Lauren, you have a wonderful topic. Yours is based on the Kindergarten level and mine is based on the pre-school level. My topic is the benefits of early education and why it is needed. I have come across many articles in the Walden Library ProQuest Database. If you check there you might find some great resources as well.
