Study summary

This project aims to explore the feasibility and efficacy of a 6-week, intensive summer literacy intervention provided to children in 1st-3rd grades.

Read the detailed description
  1. Purpose/objective:

    To determine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a 6-week literacy summer camp for improving language and literacy outcomes of children with identified language or literacy difficulties.

  2. Methods:

    This intervention will be provided by students in the speech and hearing clinic on SDSU's campus. The summer clinical sessions last for 8 weeks. Week 1 will be used for the pre-testing of each participant's baseline language (morphological awareness, phonological awareness, morphosyntax, vocabulary, and narrative language skills) and reading (letter knowledge, nonword reading, reading fluency and reading comprehension). In weeks 2-7, the intervention will take place. This will consist of 3, 3-hour sessions per week. Finally, in week 8, the investigators will conduct post-testing of children's language and reading skills.

  3. Subjects:

    The investigators will recruit a maximum of 12 students who are in the summer after Kindergarten, first, or second grade. The investigators will be recruiting students from the local community who either a) have IEPs with eligibility of SLI or SLD-reading or b) have documented parent or teacher concern for reading and/or language skills as determined by parent questionnaire.

  4. Planned analyses:

Planned analyses will include analysis of improvement in each of the language and reading skills from pre-test to post-test. The investigators will also include probes of performance of reading skills to allow for single subject analysis. The investigators will develop fidelity rubrics to explore the fidelity of intervention implementation and will analyze how fidelity relates to individual-child-level improvement.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Spelling Probes

    Experimenter-created lists of CVC words that children will be asked to spell

    Time frame: Children will spell 10 CVC words at the conclusion of each of their 14 intervention sessions. Their performance will be charted and tracked.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Test of Integrated Language and Literacy Skills standard score

    Standardized measure of language and reading skills that assesses real and non-word reading and spelling as well as oral language skills in English.

    Time frame: Administered prior to the initiation of the intervention and upon conclusion of the intervention.

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Ran from Jun 2024 to primary completion in Aug 2024, 1 month.

Of 62 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Dyslexia, half reached primary completion within 24 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 10 and three quarters within 57. This study's 1 month is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 69 studies reached it within 24 months; a quarter within 9 and three quarters within 57.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Oct 17, 2024, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
