After a little summer break, the new SCU school year has begun, and the Read lab is excited to welcome some new research students!

Our lab meetings kicked off today, and new projects are already seeding. This year along with our continuing work on storybooks for dual language learners (new student captain: Jessica Jara), and our expanding work on e-books for children on the autism spectrum (new student captain: Marya Husary), we’re developing a new study on how children can learn new verbs from a rhyming treasure hunt story (captain: Jacqueline Quirk)! There will be more to come soon, but even now we can see that this year’s read lab ship is in good hands – aye, aye!
