Abstract

It was the first purpose of this study to investigate a considerable group of elementary school pupils with the intention of determining the measurable growth in reading ability during a seven-month period of instruction. The second purpose of this study was to determine whether or not a significant difference existed in the amount of reading growth between the unilinguals of the sampling and the bilinguals. The third purpose of the study was to identify specific areas of weakness in reading and either to make appropriate recommendations for their corrections or to point out the area of indicated research.
