In qualitative research, the numbers and types of approaches find also become more clearly visible during the 1990s and into the 21st century. Books have summarized t he various types (such as the 19 strategies identified by Wolcott, 2001), and complete procedures are ow available on specific qualitative inquiry approaches. Case studies are a strategy of inquiry in which the researcher explores in depth a program, event, activity, process, or one or more individuals. Cases are bounded by time and activity, and researchers collect detailed instruction using a variety of data collection procedures oer a sustained period of time (Stake, 1995). Background/Need for the Study Most of the long research on the effects of preschool focuses on low-income children.There is very little data on any long-term benefits for middle-class children. A growing number of states have started to fund preschool programs offered at public schools, called pre-kindergarten (or pre-K) programs. Reason for interest in topic As a Kindergarten teacher in the public school system for over ten years, it has amazed me that some students enter Kindergarten ill prepared. Readines s skills are a key factor in a child experiencing academic success during the early years of school.The achievement gap is gradually closing within our school district. However, outreach to parents is still vital in order to help them understand the splendor of early childhood learning. References Creswell, J. W. (2008).
