Practice your listening skills - Exercise for little ones

in #steemiteducation5 years ago

We hear lots of sounds around us every day.  A car, your mom calling you, a dog barking and birds chirping, but the question is...

Do you really listen??

It is easy to hear all these sounds (and a huge privilege to be able to hear) but in order for us to understand and remember things, we really need to listen...

  • You are going to watch the video and listen to the story very carefully - only once.  Pause the video at 4.54. When you are done listening you  must read the questions carefully and see how much you can remember from the story.
  • Mark the questions you do not know the answer to and once you are done with the other questions, go back to the video and listen again that you can find the answers.

  1. Who is the main character in this story?
  2. What does he do during story time when he is suppose to listen?
  3. Why is the teacher so upset and what does she warn him about?
  4. What does his friends warn him about at lunch time?
  5. His friend tried to tell him something important.  Did Howard listen?
  6. Name 3 things that happened to Howard that day because he did not listen.
  7. What changes did Howard make to listen better and that he could have more fun.
  • Now go back to the video and start play again and complete the question asked in the video. (From 4.55)
  • You will now write a story where you tell what happened to you once because you did not listen or what happened because you DID listen and why it was a good thing.

Listening to your surroundings can help you to be safe, like when you cross a street or it can help you stay out of trouble like when your mom tells you to do something and it will also help you to remember what your teacher said and understand the work better.

So come on, you can do it.... Do not just HEAR, BUT LISTEN.
