The ability of students to fully engage in and benefit from their kindergarten experiences has been shown to depend on the degree to which they successfully transition into kindergarten, and the success of that transition is at least partially predicated on their home and early educational backgrounds. Easing children into the transition to school is a huge benefit in their future learning experiences. Teaching about graduation also helps children transition into kindergarten. From the tassel on the graduation cap to hearing the ceremonial music of “Pomp and Circumstance” for the first time, graduation is a special moment.Ĭelebrating milestones and educational achievements helps give children a sense of accomplishment and pride. The innate feeling of pride and accomplishment as you walk across the stage to receive your preschool diploma is so amazing. This ceremony is a great opportunity to celebrate learning and to recognize an important milestone, one that may be the first of many milestones. Graduation is such a special milestone in a child’s life.
