Improving the general language skills of second-language learners in kindergarten: a randomized controlled trial
Kristin Rogde, Monica Melby-Lervåg, & Arne Lervåg
There are increasing numbers of children whose first language differs from the predominant language of instruction in their school. Entering school where the language of instruction is a student’s second language is associated with undesirable social, educational, and economic outcomes. This study investigates the efficacy of an intervention aimed at improving second-language skills of kindergarteners.
How did we test the intervention?
