| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Verb learning with only visual and auditory support | No Intervention | This is "gold standard" learning scenario for young children. | |
| Verb learning with auditory, visual, and text support | Experimental | Participants receive the added support of text to determine if this additional support helps them learn novel words with higher accuracy. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Orthographic facilitation | Behavioral | Half of participants will receive orthographic support (text support) while learning new verbs. The investigators will compare learning with and without text support to determine if this aids verb learning. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Accuracy | The investigators will measure accuracy in an identification task with a pointing response. | 15 minutes |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Literacy as a Mediator | The investigators will compare orthographic facilitation across literacy measures to determine if/how literacy mediates how much of an effect text support offers. | 15 minutes |
