B. Activity/ Motivation - The teacher establishes the context by asking a question about their
background knowledge about the singer.
Say: Do you know Michael Jackson? Are you familiar with his songs? I know you
have you have listened to one of his hit songs “Heal the World”.
Let’s have a short activity. Try to complete the lyrics of the first part of the song
while listening to it. (Play the song and let the students fill up the missing words of
the first part of the song)
D. Abstraction - The teacher introduces the days lesson by linking it to our day to day used of
telephones, movies, radio, television, and public address has amplified the
importance of effective listening. Many jobs and positions depend quite
heavily upon effective listening. In the classroom and in everyday life,
effective listening helps one to get along and to learn. We use information
from news reports, speeches, informative talks, panel discussions, and others
in everyday conversations and exchanges through listening. Yet do we have
the listening skills adequate to meet the needs of the present world?
ACTIVE LISTENING
Hear What People Are Really Saying
Listening is one of the most important skills you can have. How well you listen has a
major impact on your job effectiveness and on the quality of your relationships with
others.
For instance:
• We listen to obtain information.
• We listen to understand.
• We listen for enjoyment.
• We listen to learn.
Given all the listening that we do, you would think we'd be good at it! In fact,
most of us are not, and research suggests that we only remember between 25% and
50% of what we hear, as described by Edgar Dale's Cone of Experience. That means
that when you talk to your boss, colleagues, customers, or spouse for 10 minutes,
they pay attention to less than half of the conversation.
Clearly, listening is a skill that we can all benefit from improving. By becoming a
better listener, you can improve your productivity, as well as your ability to
influence, persuade and negotiate. What's more, you'll avoid conflict and
misunderstandings. All of these are necessary for workplace success!
There are five key active listening techniques you can use to help you become a more
effective listener:
1. Pay Attention
Give the speaker your undivided attention and acknowledge the message. Recognize
that non-verbal communication also “speaks” loudly.
• Look at the speaker directly.
• Put aside distracting thoughts.
• Don't mentally prepare a rebuttal!
• Avoid being distracted by environmental factors (for example, side conversations).
• “Listen” to the speaker's body language.
3. Provide Feedback
Our personal filters, assumptions, judgments, and beliefs can distort what we hear.
As a listener, your role is to understand what is being said. This may require you to
reflect on what is being said and to ask questions.

• Reflect on what has been said by paraphrasing. “What I'm hearing is...,” and
“Sounds like you are saying...,” are great ways to reflect.
• Ask questions to clarify certain points. “What do you mean when you say....” “Is
this what you mean?”
• Summarize the speaker's comments periodically.
5. Defer Judgment
Interrupting is a waste of time. It frustrates the speaker and limits full
understanding of the message.
• Allow the speaker to finish each point before asking questions.
• Don't interrupt with counter arguments.
6. Respond Appropriately
Active listening is designed to encourage respect and understanding. You are
gaining information and perspective. You add nothing by attacking the speaker or
otherwise putting her down.
• Be candid, open, and honest in your response.
• Assert your opinions respectfully.
• Treat the other person in a way that you think he/she would want to be treated.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the expert body on
coronavirus, has released guidance for public and healthcare professionals on the
symptoms of the virus.
What signs and symptoms should you look out for? A person could be at risk if
they have any or all of the following: fever and symptoms of lower respiratory
illness, such as coughing or difficulty breathing, after travelling to Wuhan or having
close contact with someone who was ill and is now under investigation for the virus
in the past two weeks, fever or symptoms of lower respiratory illness after having
close contact in the past two weeks with someone who's been confirmed to have the
virus. The CDC defined “close contact” as being within about 6 feet (1.8 m) “or
within the room or care area” of a person with the coronavirus for a prolonged period
without appropriate protective clothing, or “having direct contact with infectious
secretions” of a person with the virus without protective clothing.
for people who have weaker immune systems, like young children and older adults.
How to protect yourself? To protect yourself from the virus, try to avoid contact
with people who display symptoms like those of pneumonia or the common cold, like
coughing or a runny nose. Don't touch your eyes, nose, or mouth with unwashed
hands. Wash your hands frequently with soap and water, and scrub for at least 20
seconds. Use alcohol-based hand sanitizer when possible. Avoid animals and animal
markets. The only current treatment for Coronavirus being offered is supportive in
nature. If you notice any of these signs and symptoms, please contact your nearest
Professional Healthcare setup. Help spread this information to everyone (Source:
