Previous research has indicated that the backgrounds in picture books have a higher impact on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) than on children with typical development (TD). Based on prior research, this study investigates the effect of picture book presentation order on the fixation outcomes of ASD. The experiment included 59…

Kontovourki, Stavroula; Siegel, Marjorie – Reading Research Quarterly, 2022
The tremendous interest in multimodality within the field of literacy education has challenged the verbocentric literacy landscape of schools. Research on multimodality in classroom spaces has suggested that combining and juxtaposing multiple sign systems is a generative act of transforming meanings. Yet, attention to entanglements of pedagogy and…

Samarapungavan, Ala; Bryan, Lynn A.; Staudt, Carolyn; Sapkota, Bima; Pinto, Hector E. Will; Broadhead, Jamie M.; Kimball, Nathan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
This research explored kindergarten students' learning of simple particle models to explain the properties and behavior of matter in the solid, liquid, and gas states and during phase transitions (evaporation, melting, freezing, and condensation). Science instruction for young learners tends to focus on the concrete and directly observable. This…

Kling, Gina – ProQuest LLC, 2023
The learning of basic facts, or the sums and products of numbers 0-10 and their related differences and quotients, has always been a high priority for elementary school teachers. While memorization of basic facts has been a hallmark of elementary school, current recommendations focus on a more nuanced development of fluency with these facts.…

Daibao Guo; Huijing Wen; April Silimperi; Sadi Harp – Reading Psychology, 2024
Using a verbal protocol, this study investigated how 38 second-grade students identify, describe, and interpret five types of commonly used visual graphics in science texts (i.e., cut-away diagrams, maps, captioned photographs, flow diagrams, and hybrids). Additionally, we explored the challenges students encountered when interpreting these…

Nihan Sahinkaya; Zeynep Çigdem Özcan; Selda Obalar – Mathematics Teaching Research Journal, 2024
It is important to work on verbal mathematical problem-solving skills, which is one of the high-level skills with which students have difficulty. Supporting problems with visuals has been suggested by mathematics educators to develop this skill. This study examined the effect of the visualization of mathematical problems on the problem-solving…

Sylviane Valdois; Ahmed Zaher; Svetlana Meyer; Julien Diard; Sonia Mandin; Marie Line Bosse – Reading Research Quarterly, 2025
Longitudinal studies on mainstream children and training studies in the dyslexic population suggest that visual attention span (VAS) abilities contribute to reading acquisition. We evaluated to what extent VAS training in beginning readers might enhance later literacy skills. A large cohort of 453 children was followed from the beginning to the…

Stacy K. Boote; Terrie M. Galanti; Danielle Felicien; Tara Kelly – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Teachers and teacher educators have been sharing strategies and resources for implementing mathematics routines in National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) journals for years. A less commonly shared mathematics routine, especially with young learners, is "Clothesline Math" (Shore, 2017, 2018). In this routine, teachers create…

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to investigate the implementation of a researcher-created numberless word problem instructional unit designed to introduce second-grade students to word problems in the semantic category of "compare with the word more, smaller unknown." The 10-day instructional unit incorporated three elements:…

Eichstaedt, Maureen – ProQuest LLC, 2023
This study measured the effectiveness of sight word practice using flashcards and the growth results were compared based on presentation formats when administered to a group of second grade students. The data were later disaggregated to compare the success rates of each platform among three different subgroups within the test population, based on…

Increasing engagement may enable struggling readers to catch up with their peers. This study examined the impact of using multisensory strategies with Elkonin boxes to teach decodable words to first grade students. The study found that student interest impacted engagement, particularly when it was a combination of auditory, tactile, and visual.…
