Welcome to a Whole New World of TK or more formally called Transitional Kindergarten. TK is the first of a two year kindergarten program. This first year is considered by many to be the gift of time in a developmentally appropriate learning environment which will give these youngest kindergarteners a better chance at success. In my culturally diverse and economically challenged school, this is an extremely important year.
My TK kiddos, many who are first time students, begin the year as four year olds. Together, over the first four months of school, everyone turns five! It is an amazing year, and I have the great honor of being their guide as together we begin their journey into a whole new wonderful world of education.
