Book synopsis

The Florida Department of Education (DOE) indicated §that twenty percent of Florida's children entering §public school are identified as "not ready to §learn." Many early childhood educators have said §that a five-year old entering school for the first §time, beginning the journey of a lifelong education, §may already have missed some crucial opportunities §for learning that can never be recaptured (Newman, §1997). From the standpoint of brain development, §children start school relatively late in life. Long §before youngsters master their ABCs, their brains §have passed many developmental milestones. Yet, §education policy has not addressed how children §learn before they arrive at school or how parents §can be helped to enrich the home environment so that §their children will be ready to learn when they §reach school age. The purpose of this study was to §determine if young children who experienced a brain §enriched learning environment prior to starting §school, enter school ready to learn.
