Abstract	Prekindergarten is becoming part of elementary school in the growing number of districts that treat the pre-K-3 years as a distinct learning period. Implementation of instructional connections is a primary goal behind a movement to make pre-K classrooms part of the regular life of elementary schools. Proponents of such efforts argue that children in prekindergarten through 3rd grade make up a specific developmental period. Such advocacy appears to be gaining momentum; many states are developing early-childhood learning standards linked to those of other grades. It has been found that this type of "alignment" ensures that what children learn and experience in preschool--including curriculum, assessments, and teaching methods--prepares them for the next grade level.
