Thread: Want to know what preschoolers can do mathematically? Check out our new manuscript led by @elitkow with @rjduncan5 and @jarlogan in JECP. https://t.co/KNQcuXX4Xu It’s one of my new faves from @pearl_center!

Why is this important to know? And what can they do? 1/20

I wrote a review/commentary on the “30-million word gap” that was just published in Child Development. https://t.co/g4ssXKccE7
It’s available for early view, but I want to share some highlights of what I discuss in this thread...1/n

Anyone know of a guide for best practices in language intervention? (Pre-K age). Something akin to the @IESResearch practice guides?
