Rizka Razimona; Sary Silvhiany; Machdalena Vianty – Indonesian Journal of English Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics, 2024
Teaching English to first-grade elementary school children presents its own challenges for teachers. This is because children at this age have characteristics such as having a short attention span, enjoying playing, and learning more effectively when they are having fun. On the other hand, children in this group are still learning to read and…

Ting-Chia Hsu; Ching Chang; Tien-Hsiu Jen – Interactive Learning Environments, 2024
Young learners' vocabulary learning needs interaction with language input when they are engaged in an activity. Given that AI-supported image recognition technologies offer hands-on learning in authentic contexts, and that self-regulated learning (SRL) enables learners to monitor and evaluate their learning when interacting with multi-sensory…

Chambrè, Susan J. – Reading Horizons, 2023
Vocabulary development remains an active and robust research area, yet little is known about what students, particularly young students, think during vocabulary learning. A commonly held assumption is that young learners employ few, if any, cognitive and metacognitive strategies when engaged in literacy tasks. Conversely, decades of research…

Bucknam, Jessica; Hood, Sally J. – RELC Journal: A Journal of Language Teaching and Research, 2021
This research describes language use by four first-grade students during mathematics and Language Arts instruction in a one-way 50/50 Mandarin immersion classroom. The urban public school was situated in the heart of an African-American community in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. Participants were video- and audio-recorded…

Sato, Masatoshi; Dussuel Lam, Claudia – Language Teaching Research, 2021
This classroom-based, quasi-experimental study explored the impact of metacognitive instruction designed to promote young learners' (1) willingness to communicate (WTC), (2) participation in communicative activities, and (3) metacognitive knowledge of oral communication. Forty-four Grade 3 students (8--9 years old) from two intact classes…

Hui-Hsuan Chung; Szu-Yin Chu; Shu-Hsuan Kung; Wan-Chen Lin – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2024
This study evaluated the effect of peer-assisted learning strategies (PALS) intervention on the language and story comprehension skills of two kindergartners with developmental delays from a special education class while reading a digital storybook. The study was conducted in Taiwan with participants who spoke Mandarin Chinese. This study was a…

Lai, Jung-Yu; Chang, Li-Ting – SAGE Open, 2021
The education community has gradually recognized the value of augmented reality (AR) technology and its positive impacts on student learning performance. Still, few studies have proposed specific solutions and results to confirm this phenomenon for first graders in English vocabulary learning. Hence, this research explores the effects of AR apps…

Keefer, Natalie; Lopez, Julia; Young, Jyhane; Haj-Broussard, Michelle – Social Studies and the Young Learner, 2020
At the intersection of social studies and world language curricula are opportunities to explore students' prior learning with vocabulary-rich content designed to support language acquisition goals. "Funds of knowledge" is defined as socio-cultural, economic, and historical knowledge from home and community settings. The instructional…

Krause, Gladys; Maldonado Rodríguez, Luz A.; Adams-Corral, Melissa – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
Lina, a Mexican American second grader, bilingual in Spanish and English, used a strategy for adding two two-digit numbers that the authors share as an example of the importance of listening to the mathematical ideas of children, especially when these ideas do not align with how mathematics is traditionally represented in the classroom. The…

McGregor, Karla K.; Smolak, Erin; Jones, Michelle; Oleson, Jacob; Eden, Nichole; Arbisi-Kelm, Timothy; Pomper, Ronald – Cognitive Science, 2022
Children with developmental language disorder (DLD) served as a test case for determining the role of extant vocabulary knowledge, endogenous attention, and phonological working memory abilities in cross-situational word learning. First-graders (M[subscript age] = 7 years; 3 months), 44 with typical development (TD) and 28 with DLD, completed a…

Lau, Elaine – First Language, 2016
Resumptive pronouns are often regarded as a last-resort strategy for rescuing illicit long-distance dependencies. Previous work has demonstrated a facilitative role for resumptive pronouns in production as well as in comprehension, though not a grammatical option in the languages. This study examined whether the same pattern is found in Cantonese,…

Pernille Fiskerstrand; Siv M. Gamlem – Assessment in Education: Principles, Policy & Practice, 2024
The quality of feedback interactions, when young pupils write, influences their learning processes. Still, teachers tend to use feedback that provides little information to enhance pupils' understanding and learning regarding their literacy skills. More knowledge about feedback interactions for young pupils as they write is needed. Thus, we wanted…

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…

Becker, Patricia A. – TEACHING Exceptional Children, 2020
To serve children with language impairments (LI), speech language pathologists and other educators need approaches supported by evidence (Hoffman et al., 2013). In evidence-based practice (EBP), educators integrate children's needs, strengths, interests, and preferences with research and expertise (American Speech-Language-Hearing Association,…

Carrazza, Cristina; Wakefield, Elizabeth M.; Hemani-Lopez, Naureen; Plath, Kristin; Goldin-Meadow, Susan – Grantee Submission, 2021
It is well established that gesture facilitates learning, but understanding the best way to harness gesture and "how" gesture helps learners are still open questions. Here, we consider one of the properties that may make gesture a powerful teaching tool: its temporal alignment with spoken language. Previous work shows that the…
