Transitions refer to the changes or movements from one state, condition, or phase to another. They can occur in various contexts, such as in writing, where a transition helps connect ideas smoothly, or in life, where individuals may experience transitions during significant events like moving to a new city or starting a new job. In the context of education, transitions often describe the process students undergo when moving between different levels, such as from elementary school to middle school or from high school to college. These transitions can impact a student's social, emotional, and academic development, making support during these times essential.
