Description
Teaching Children to Listen in Primary Schools offers practical interventions and activities to improve listening skills across the school. Poor listening can be a significant barrier to teaching, leading to distracting behaviour that affects the entire class.
Specialist speech and language therapists Liz Spooner and Jacqui Woodcock provide a wealth of resources, including a rating scale to assess pupils on key listening rules and 40 games to encourage good listening habits. This guide is designed to help teachers develop children's listening skills, with clear explanations and photocopiable materials.
By understanding the importance of listening and identifying the behaviours needed for good listeners, this book provides an invaluable resource for teaching children to listen in primary schools.
