LISTENINGListening is more than merely hearing words.

Listening is an active process by which students receive, construct

meaning from, and respond to spoken and or nonverbal messages

(Emmert, 1994).

As such, it forms an integral part of the communication process and

should not be separated from the other language arts. Listening

comprehension complements reading comprehension.

Teachers can help students become effective listeners by making

them aware of the different kinds of listening, the different purposes

for listening, and the qualities of good listeners. Wolvin and Coakley

(1992) identify four different kinds of listening.

WRITINGWriting can mean using letters and symbols to represent sounds andwords of a language such as "I like writing letters to my friends."

Writing can mean the actual words and letters, such as "Writing was

invented thousands of years ago."

Writing can mean the work of an author, such as "His writing can be

found in any bookstore today."

Writing systems use sets of symbols to represent the sounds of speech,

and may also have symbols for such things as punctuation andnumerals.

READING'Reading' is a complex cognitive process of decoding symbols for the

intention of deriving meaning (reading comprehension) and/or

constructing meaning.

It is the mastery of basic cognitive processes to the point where they

are automatic so that attention is freed for the analysis of meaning.

Reading is a means oflanguage acquisition, of communication, and of

sharing information and ideas. Like all language, it is a complex

interaction between the text and the reader which is shaped by the

readers prior knowledge, experiences, attitude, and language

community which is culturally and socially situated.

The reading process requires continuous practices, development, and

refinement.

TECHNIQUE FOR TEACHING

LISTENING

Title:

Point to It

Type:Listen, Look and Do

Time:

a few minutes at most

Method:

Students merely point to the item that the teacher says. Allow students to look at their friends responses for this.

This can be used for the presentation stage of the lesson, but needs to be kept brief. It can also be used to review

items prior to a speaking activity in games such as Snakes and Ladders and Follow the Wire.

Rationale:

Perhaps it is easier to learn from fellow students rather than from the teacher.

: Students have a grid of say six rows by ten columns, and one die per

group. Students take turn to throw the die and move forward the

number of squares. They read only the item on the square that they land

on. If this square is a ladder, they climb up it, but if it is a snake, they

slide down it.
