Meanwhile I have been enquiring the way of continuing cooperation between nursery and primary school. The methods used for data collection include participant observation in two types of schools. i.e. pre-school class in Luby and the first grade at the primary school in Luby, in which I participate both as an observer and participant. Furthermore, there are standardized interviews with the teachers of pre-school education and primary school teachers of the 1st grade. The data are divided into the synoptic units, from which I took the final results of this research issue.
