Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) Videos

The Purposeful Play in TK video project has been developed to provide school administrators, teachers, and parents with a quick glance at developmentally appropriate practices in the Transitional Kindergarten classroom. While the videos highlight Transitional Kindergarten, the content is intended for all children of pre-kindergarten age.

Research has shown that through play, children learn social–emotional, cognitive, and physical skills that are essential in preparing them for later learning. The Purposeful Play in TK video project covers an array of topics and serves as a vehicle for understanding the importance of play based learning in the early education setting.

New videos will be added throughout the year.
