Active Listening BUNDLE

Imagine a classroom full of active listeners.  Students listening intently, participating, and engaging in what the speaker is saying.  A teacher’s dream, huh?! When students know and feel that they are heard and understood, they are more likely to engage. Teaching, modeling, and providing guided practice in active listening transforms students into active listeners. In this bundle, I include Active Listening Note Taking Cards, Slant Posters & an Active Listening Modeling Script.

The Note Taking resource includes:

• 7 Active Listening Note-Taking Response Cards (Print onto Astrobrights paper or paste the one page in a notebook)
• Thoughtful Questions and Comments
• Restate (paraphrase)
• Summarize
• Reflect
• Asking Questions
• Making Connections
• All the skills
• SLANT Posters

Note-Taking Cards can be laminated for easy reuse, written directly on, or used with a sticky note.

You could make a laminated set of these cards for each student and attach it to a binder ring for easy access and practice.

The modeling script has activities to teach, model, and practice active listening:

•Establish Expectations for Active Listening & Introduce SLANT

•Active Listening Practice: The Sender & The Receiver

•Active Listening Note Taking- Thoughtful Questions & Comments

•Active Listening Note Taking with these 5 skills: restate, summarize, reflect, ask questions, & make connections

•Who Remembers

It also allows multiple opportunities to teach, model & guided practice in whole group, small groups, and with partners. Always provide frequent positive feedback when students demonstrate the desired behavior.

Easy to use:

•2 options to print (one-sided or two-sided, flip pages on short edge)

•Easy to cut out templates to hole punch and attach to a binder ring
