The purpose of this paper is to describe the
components, usability, and feasibility of a new Read it
Again-Dual Language curriculum (RIA-DL; Dura´n et al.
n.d.). The RIA-DL is based on the Read it Again-PreK!
(Justice and McGinty 2009) and adapted to meet the unique
needs of Spanish–English bilingual preschoolers. The
curriculum targets meaning-based and code-based skills
including oral vocabulary, print awareness, phonological
awareness, and narrative development, which support
strong foundations for reading achievement (August and
Shanahan 2006). Fidelity and usability data are presented,
followed by discussions addressing implications for teacher
implementation, dual language instruction, and continued
curriculum enhancements.
