Redshirt or not to Redshirt?
NAEYC’s position statement on inappropriate practices in Kindergarten includes the following:
“Delaying children’s entry into school and/or segregating them into extra-year classes actually labels children as failures at the outset of their school experience.”
For this assignment you will need to:
(1) take a position on the statement (agree/disagree), and
(2) support your position with information from the readings and videos in this module (include citations and references)
(3) discuss the role of the preschool teacher in determining whether or not a child should be academically redshirted.
