LET'S PLAY:
GET READY: Read "Be a better listener". Use the points mentioned there to make a list of Do's and Don'ts for good listening.
GET SET: Pick a crowded place such
as your school's canteen during
recess. Settle down at a table that
gives you a close-up view of students
chatting.
GO! Observe people. Using the table above, look for the do's and don'ts people commit when listening to one another. Jot down what you see. Stop when you have found one example for each of the eight do's and don'ts.
THINK ABOUT IT. In what ways did this activity help you to become a better listener?
