what to expect:

The UB Language Learning Lab comes into classrooms to do a short activity with students in, or entering, Kindergarten, 1st & 2nd grades.

If your child's school is participating, your child(ren) will get to listen to sentences and mark which picture matches the sentences they hear. The activity is being given as part of a research study at UB and takes about 15 minutes. 

The results allow us to develop ways to help teachers know which students may (or may not) need additional assistance in the classroom. The UB Language Learning Lab will not collect your child's name.  If you would prefer that your child not do the activity, please let your child's teacher know and they will do another teacher-led activity during that time.

You may also receive an invitation to participate in the larger language study!
