Pitner, Hannah – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Relatively little research has considered how tasks are performed and experienced by students in different types of classrooms. Research shows that innovative classroom designs can lead to higher levels of cognitive engagement, connections between form and meaning, and more diverse forms of input (Schmidt, 1990; Svalberg, 2012) and are…

Taboada Barber, Ana; Klauda, Susan Lutz; Wang, Weimeng – Reading Research Quarterly, 2022
Socioemotional constructs have been receiving increased attention as contributors to individuals' literacy development. However, in comparison with positive socioemotional constructs, negative socioemotional constructs have been understudied with respect to their role in reading achievement in both emergent bilinguals (EBs) and English…

Socio-emotional constructs have been receiving increased attention as contributors to children's literacy development. However, in comparison to positive socio-emotional constructs, negative socio-emotional constructs have been understudied with respect to their role in reading achievement in both dual language learners (DLLs) and English speakers…

Daly, Nicola; Kleker, Dorea; Short, Kathy G. – Language and Education, 2022
Children continuously engage in developing theories about how the world works as they inquire through play and interactions with others. In this study, we investigated children's in-process thinking in the form of working theories about language as they participated in engagements around dual language picturebooks in an afterschool club. Our…

Lindner, Amanda L.; Wijekumar, Kausalai; Joshi, R. Malatesha – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
The depth of the English orthography makes reading and spelling in English a difficult task; particularly for English language learners (ELLs) whose first language (L1) has a shallow orthography. Mastering spelling in English is a critical component of increasing the English literacy of ELLs. This study investigated the English spelling of 569…

Silverman, Rebecca D.; Proctor, C. Patrick; Harring, Jeffrey R.; Taylor, Karen S.; Johnson, Erika M.; Jones, Renata Love; Lee, Yewon – Elementary School Journal, 2021
Writing is a critical dimension of literacy that is grounded in language and intimately connected to reading. However, instruction to support writing remains understudied, particularly among bilingual students. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the CLAVES intervention specifically on argument writing. The CLAVES intervention…

Paz Suárez-Coalla; Luis Castejón; Marina Vega-Harwood; Cristina Martínez-García – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2024
Reading acquisition involves connections between the spoken language and the writing system. The English-language writing system holds an inconsistent alphabetic system, thus encouraging readers to develop representations between the grapheme and the word. Reading in English as a Foreign language supposes a challenge, especially when the reader's…

Gumina, Deena – Bilingual Research Journal, 2022
This study examines how three bilingual education teachers engaged with a transitional bilingual policy while balancing the demands of monolingual high-stakes assessments in ways that contributed to advocacy on behalf of their bilingual learners. The consequences of high-stakes accountability can be exacerbated in bilingual settings, because in…

Peng, Anqi; Orosco, Michael J.; Wang, Hui; Swanson, H. Lee; Reed, Deborah K. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
Proficient writing performance in English requires multiple cognitive skills, which can be particularly challenging for English Learners (ELs). However, compared with reading and mathematics, there have been fewer scientific inquiries that explore the relationship between cognitive components and writing. The purpose of this study was to examine…
