Purpose Of The Article Study: There have been a rising proportion of single-parent families, an increasing number of working mothers, and an increasing number of children with special needs. Due to these occurring societal shifts in the United States, the Early Childhood Longitudinal Study – Kindergarten Cohort (ECLS-K) was conducted to study children in the United States who began kindergarten in 1998. In order to identify the contributions of families, classrooms, and schools that effectively promote child development, the U.S. Department of Education and the National Center for Education Statistics have prompted the ECLS-K to understand the processes of children’s learning development. The purpose of this study was for ECLS-K to provide information for researchers explaining the factors such as cultural differences, family processes, learning styles, educational preferences, and educational resources provided to children during their elementary and middle school years. The study was to explain ho w factors have greatly contributed to each child’s socio-emotional and academic growth.
