11.2 Listening
Strategy: Listen for Statistics
- Statistics are facts with numbers.
- Speakers often give statistics to support their ideas.
- When you hear a number, write it down.
- Also write other information about the number so you remember what that number means!
Example:
HEAR: “According to one survey, 63% of people said they were making plans to travel internationally in 2022.”
WRITE: 63% travel int’l 2022
