Hockenberger, Elaine Hontz; Goldstein, Howard; Haas, Linda Sirianni
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v19 n1 p15-27 Spr 1999
This study investigated whether teaching mothers with low socioeconomic status to comment while reading to three children with developmental disabilities and four at-risk children would increase communicative interaction and improve the children's emerging literacy skills. All children were more assertive and responsive and four improved emerging literacy skills. (Author/CR)
