Enhancing Linguistic Performance: Parents and Teachers as Book Reading Partners for Children with Language Delays.
Crain-Thoreson, Catherine; Dale, Philip S.
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v19 n1 p28-39 Spr 1999
A study involving 32 children with language delays investigated the effectiveness of Dialogic Reading, an interactive language-facilitation technique. After adult instruction in Dialogic Reading, children spoke more, made longer utterances, produced more words, and participated more in shared book reading. No differences were found in vocabulary development. (Author/CR)
