For this study, 84 elementary school students(36 multicultural students and 48 general students) were employed and tested by phonological awareness test, phonological memory test and word recognition test. The data analysis method were two-way ANOVA and regression analysis. The results of this study were as follows. First, the abilities of multicultural students were lower than general students in phonological awareness, phonological memory and word recognition.
