Helping children learn how to listen

Thanks T |
Hi Tina, embedding listening skills involves how chidlren gain and retain information and how their focus or attention is attracted so that they're able to hear and understand/comprehend what's being said or signed. Rest, quiet and sleep patterns are activities that enables daily experiences to embed into the subconcious. So routines that support all levels of physical activity help children learn how to examine and reflect on the information they've encountered.
Rested children are capable of concentrating for longer periods of time than tired children who might become restless after a while. Similarly children with an attention defict disorder will struggle to maintain focussed concentration. Interesting areas with interesting conversations that invite examination, feedback, manipulation of resources will raise the awareness of how listenting is a positive/beneficial act. Listening during the pre-linguistic and linguistic phase, active listening or receptive speech is where hearing and understanding work together to comprehend contexts. Sustained shared thinking, being close and aware of each child helps everyone take part in listening activities and contribution Embed listening activities:
