    Warm-up!

    What are some ways you can bring listening practice into any English class? What are your ideas? Flip chart them, please!
    Did you think of

    Presenting all dialogues, stories, directions, etc. as LISTENING COMPREHENSION ACTIVITIES first Making English the procedural language in class Paying attention to chunks of language Practicing until automatic spoken expressions that support listening? What was that again, please?

    Why is listening a threshold skill for overall English participation?


    If youre a beginner in a foreign language, can you keep up in a real conversation? If youre advanced how well do you keep up at a cocktail party? If you can only listen word by word (and you struggle to do that), can you participate in conversations? So how can we help beginners begin participating in English as soon as possible?

    Learners need to be able to listen and comprehend conversations before they can begin to participate in conversations.

    PRE Listening Activities


    Activating student background knowledge (asking them questions, or sharing a personal experience or relating to other classroom lessons the topic of the listening passage) Showing pictures related to the listening passage Doing an impromptu role play with a student that reveals the listening content (for a listening passage on food ask a student to pretend s/he is at a restaurant and is going to order her/his favorite meal and that you are the waiter). Pre-teaching a few key vocabulary items or phrases that are probably new to the students

    DURING activities
    repeating the listening passage more than once emphasizing particularly useful chunks of language through stressed intonation or questions, checking comprehension and clarifying vocabulary and the context of the passage probing implications of passage. discussing the authors purpose or style making connections with other readings, lessons, or student real-life experiences

    POST activities
    reviewing other vocabulary/chunks the teacher has not covered discussion of topic developing student comprehension by asking both lower order and higher order questions applying the information in the passage to solving a problem or carrying out a process. using the listening passage as a model for the students to then make a personalize version/alternative to the passage they heard.
