Listening while reading promotes word learning
from stories.
Reading and listening to stories fosters vocabulary development.
Studies of single word learning suggest that new words are more
likely to be learned when both their oral and written forms are pro￾vided, compared with when only one form is given.

This study investigated children’s incidental word learning from stories, comparing listening, read￾ing, and combined conditions for the first time. Children learned information about the phonology,
orthography, and semantics of new words, but the extent and nature of their learning depended on
the presentation modality.
