Listening Skills

Listening

We would all recognize that being able to listen is essential to meaningful conversation and necessary for genuine interaction to take place. But what are the skills which we should aim to develop in our children?

  • Develop the habit of being good listeners. Insist on concentrated effort the first time. This can be tested and trained through the use of narrations.
  • Listen to a broad selection of reading material- fiction, non-fiction, literature, poetry, plays, biographies, tapes, CDs, sermons, music.
  • Narrate after one reading of the material.
  • To follow directions.
  • To visualize what is being read.
  • To respond in a personal way to the reading.
  • To listen across the subject areas and narrate in detail and also in summary.
