Kung, Melody; Stolz, Kelsey; Lin, Joyce; Foster, Matthew E.; Schmitt, Sara A.; Purpura, David J. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2021

Socioeconomic status (SES) and language minority status can also influence children's HNE and numeracy. Limited HNE research focuses on dual language learners (DLLs). Using a sample of preschool-aged children (n = 98) from low socioeconomic status…
