Abstract
The kindergarten experience has traditionally been a bridge between informal home experiences and more formal school experiences. Currently, there is a concern because it appears that more and more children are at-risk for kindergarten failure (Slavin, Karweit, Wasik, 1992). In the 1960's and 1970's, failure prevention in kindergarten had focused on potentially at-risk students who might not have had rich pre-school experiences necessary for school success. Programs such as Head Start were designed to give these potentially at-risk students from lower socioeconomic groups school readiness experiences. Throughout the l 970's, readiness for elementary education was defined in terms of attitudes and motivation rather than specific academic skills (Charlesworth, 1989).
