A Longitudinal Analysis of the Connection between Oral Language and Early Reading.
Roth, Froma P.; Speece, Deborah L.; Cooper, David H.
Journal of Educational Research, v95 n5 p259-72 May-Jun 2002
Investigated the relationship between oral language and early reading development by administering to 39 children a broad range of oral language, background, and reading ability measures in kindergarten and first and second grade. Overall, semantic abilities, not phonological awareness, predicted second grade reading comprehension. Phonological awareness in kindergarten predicted single-word reading in first and second grades.
