Listening Comprehension? What's That?: The over-looked Companion to Reading Comprehension

This book is about teaching children how to listen. Teachers and parents are often telling children to 'listen', and this is good, but what specific lessons do we use to teach students 'how' to listen? Is this necessary? Is there a connection between Listening Comprehension and Reading comprehension? How are they related? What are the activities that help children become better listeners? What are the factors that prevent students from becoming good listeners? What is the role of parents in helping students become better listeners? All these questions and more will be answered in this book.
