The Development and Cross-Language Transfer of Phonological Awareness.

Cisero, Cheryl A.; Royer, James M.

Contemporary Educational Psychology, v20 n3 p275-303 Jul 1995

Whether phonological awareness skills develop in a specific pattern and whether they transfer to another language were studied in 2 experiments with 126 English- and Spanish- speaking kindergartners and 1st graders. Results indicated that cross-language transfer can be detected in skills that are still developing. (SLD)
