The target student, Carlos (red squares), is reading approximately 20 correct words per minute. Typical bilingual, similarly acculturated peers (black triangle), are reading more words per minute as compared to Carlos. Monolingual, native-English speaking peers (blue circles) are reading significantly more words per minute than the target child.
