4.2 Listening

Strategy: Predict

  • Thinking about the topic before you listen helps you prepare to hear and understand more. 
  • It is ok if your predictions  are correct or incorrect.
  • The goal is to “warm up” your ears and brain, not to guess accurately.

Predict, Listen, Take Notes

  1. Predict what the speakers might say. Type your ideas in the second column.
  2. Listen. Take notes in the third column.
  3. *If one of your predictions is correct, circle it (don’t re-write it).

**If you want to save your responses, navigate to page 2 and click “Export text”.
