Learning to Listen, Listening to Learn will help teachers to: - understand the components of listening - discover why children do or do not listen - actively listen to children and other adults - provide a rich oral language environment - help parents support their children's listening learning Children, especially in the preschool years, are ready to learn about becoming good listeners.
