| Title |
Cross-Linguistic Transfer of Literacy Skills Between English and French Among Grade 1 and 2 Elementary School Students Attending French Immersion Programs
|
| Abstract |
The author examines two questions relating to young students attending French immersion programs: 1) What are the impacts of a preventative intervention in English on the decoding and spelling skills in French among Grade 1 and Grade 2 at-risk students? and 2) Does transfer occur at the level of specific knowledge (i.e. transfer of specific grapheme-phoneme correspondences (GPC)) or at the more general level of process involved in reading (i.e. letter-sound rules generalization)? Among her findings are that cross-linguistic transfer occurs generally more at the process level (decoding mechanisms) rather than with specific GPC knowledge in Grade 1. In Grade 2, however, she found no significant evidence of cross-linguistic transfer was found.
