The book, Transition Time: Let's Do
Something Different, by Jean Feldman, was enjoyed and evaluated highly by
several of my early childhood special education teaching staff. Some of
the comments include: "excellent ideas for difficult times during the day,
such as arrival, nap time and dismissal." They also praised the strategies
for calming activities and transitions. It has been so well received that
I am going to purchase additional copies for my staff, as well as the
program teachers, with whom we collaborate.
Thank you for the opportunity!
