Bangladesh has one of the highest densities of livestock in the world with 145 large ruminants per square kilometer. Dairy is the most important sector of livestock industry in Bangladesh that provides greater part of animal source protein for human consumption. Lifetime productivity of cows largely depends on their individual reproductive performance. In most countries, the primary objective of a reproductive control program in a dairy herd is to have each cow calve and produce a live calf in every 12 months.

The purpose of this study was to analyze verbal interactions during dialogic storybook reading while using the child's native language or English. Four Spanish-speaking children were read to during Head Start home visits by an English-speaking teacher or a Spanish-speaking paraprofessional. Each session was videotaped and then analyzed using the Adult-Child Interactive Reading Inventory (ACIRI) (DeBruin-Parecki, 2007) and ¡Dime mas!, a researcher-developed event-based cross classifying coding scheme. Effect sizes calculated for the three subscale scores on the ACIRI (DeBruin-Parecki, 2007) indicated differences in using literacy strategies both at the adult and child levels between the English and Spanish condition favoring English. Results of ¡Dime mas! indicated slight increases in shared meaning when Spanish was used, but the quality of child responses remained essentially the same. Implications for native language support in early childhood programs are discussed.
