This study attempts to answer two questions: (1) How does the written English syntax of black, white, Indian and Spanish-American children in the intermediate grades differ? and (2) How does the tested language ability of these children differ? Concludes with a brief list of differences for teacher use in the classroom. (Author/SDH)
