Abstract

It was the purpose of this study to examine the effect of the Flying Start Learning-to-Learn program on the readiness of pre-kindergarten children. Differences in developmental standing were determined in four groups of children randomly assigned according to Solomon's design. Two groups were taught the Flying Start Learning-to-Learn program prior to the start of the regular kindergarten curriculum. Measures on five dependent variables were taken and were analysed using Anova and Ancova. The results are discussed and interpreted.
