Last year, Lauren Forsythe, wonderful teacher at the WAFC, participated in Thought Session, one of the long term learning opportunities offered through iDEA (our district's professional development committee). During that year-long experience, she engaged in some really powerful action research regarding the role a child’s peers might play in his/her successful transition from one space to another. Hearing Lauren speak about the child, who was the impetus for her research, was and still is quite moving. Since the conclusion of her research, Lauren has shared her work with DESE and others around the state. Just recently, Lauren’s research was published in Voices of Practitioners, the teacher research of journal of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC).
I would encourage you to read Lauren's research article below!
Each child, Each day...John
