Summary

This study looked at whether interactive book reading can help kindergarteners with Specific Language Impairment (SLI) learn new words. Researchers tested three versions of the reading method that varied how often children were asked to talk about the words. The goal was to see which version led to the best learning and memory of new words, and to understand what factors influence each child's progress.
