Language Growth of Bilingual Children

We’re conducting a study to test new language assessments for children who speak a language other than English at home. We’re looking for kids aged 4 to 6 years who are starting an English-based academic program and who speak a non-English language at home to participate.

Kids will participate in the study over two school years. During study sessions kids complete language tasks like telling stories and pointing to pictures, as well as some computer tasks. Parents need to complete an interview about their child.

Parents receive $10 for each session their child completes and for each parent interview, for a total of $160 by the end of the study.  Click here for more information on this study.
