Making Linkages resource was created to enhance and identify the connections that extend from the British Columbia Early Learning Framework to the Primary Program: A Framework for Teaching.

The Making Linkages document is of particular interest to primary
educators and early childhood educators who together can create a
seamless path of learning for children.

School districts and other partners are encouraged to use the Making Linkages
resource to facilitate dialogue between primary teachers, early
childhood educators and other early years professionals about the
importance of early learning and the continuum of development in and
transition to the primary schooling years. Kindergarten teachers are
encouraged to use the resource as children transition into kindergarten.

Despite
the tough economic times and Victoria's empty bank account, the
government insists it will still bring in all-day kindergarten in B.C.,
starting next fall.

But not all at once. All-day-K will be phased
in over two years, with half of the province's 40,000 eligible kids
enrolling in all-day kindergarten in September 2010. The rest will
catch up in 2011.
