Efficacy of Let's Know! First Grade

Conditions studied: Developmental Language Disorder and Language Impairment
In brief
Oral language skills are vital for reading comprehension. Some children, however, are at increased risk for reading comprehension difficulties due to underlying oral language deficits. School-based interventions that target children's abilities to understand and produce spoken language have shown positive effects for improving language and reading comprehension of children with typical development and those at-risk for language disorders, so it is likely that they will benefit children with low oral language skills. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of a small-group intervention for improve language skills in first grade students with low oral language skills.
