Escamilla, Kathy; Andrade, Anna
Education and Urban Society, v24 n2 p212-26 Feb 1992
Research suggests that use of a child's native language in initial literacy instruction is beneficial. The Descubriendo la Lectura (DLL) Spanish-language application of the English Reading Recovery Program is described as implemented for one Spanish-speaking first grade boy. The DLL program capitalizes on strengths children demonstrate in reading. (SLD)
