Active Listening

A lesson for pupils at KS2 / KS3 to promote active listening skills, crucial across the curiculum and for AfL. The lesson would contribute to a PSHE / Citizenship or learning to learn programme or form part of a foundation learning skills programme in Year 7. It would also complement lessons on effective groupwork.

The lesson particularly addresses the concept of ‘Listening with Empathy’.

The main activity is delivered through a Power Point presentation, supported with a lesson plan and supplemented with a card sort, assessment / evaluation sheets, poster and flier. There are also background notes and an information sheet for parents.
