A study by Marilyn Daniels concluded that "preschoolers whose teachers use both signs and speech in the classroom have bigger spoken vocabularies toward the end of the school year, and these gains in vocabulary were sustained into kindergarten".

Study: Daniels, M., The effect of sign language on hearing children’s language development. Communication Education, 1994. 43: p. 291-298.
