Abstract
"This study aims to contribute to our understanding of multilingual development by: (a) identifying the strategies used by children who are learning to read using dual language text; (b) identifying the strategies used by parents and guardians in working with children who are learning to read using dual language text; (c) exploring the nature of the transfer of strategies, concepts and skills between languages; (d) exploring the impact on metalinguistic understanding and comprehension of reading a story simultaneously in two languages; and (e) studying the effect of the reading activities on children's evolving personal and learner identities." -- p. 2.
