Teaching Children to Listen in Primary Schools contains a wealth of
interventions to improve listening skills across the school. It is
perfect for classrooms where poor listening is an increasing
barrier to teaching as the resultant distractible behaviour can
make it difficult for the rest of the class to pay attention.
Specialist speech and language therapists Liz Spooner and Jacqui
Woodcock present activities to develop children's key listening
skills, as well as a rating scale to assess pupils on each of the
four rules of good listening - looking at the person who is
talking; sitting still; staying quiet; and listening to all the
words. They offer advice on using these findings to inform
individual education plans. Liz and Jacqui also look at why
listening is important and offer 40 games to encourage children to
become good listeners. This practical guide not only contains
photocopiable resources, assessment and teaching suggestions with
clear and concise explanations from professionals who directly work
with children on a daily basis, but it also pinpoints the
behaviours that children need to learn in order to be good
listeners. Teaching Children to Listen in Primary Schools is an
invaluable resource for practically developing children's listening

Teaching Children to Listen in the Early Years contains a wealth of
interventions to teach young children the rules of good listening
and why they are important. It is perfect for Early Years
practitioners and settings where poor listening is an increasing
barrier to teaching and growing numbers of children find it a
challenge to stay focused on a task and follow even simple
instructions, especially as technology proliferates. This affects
young children's learning in all curriculum areas and their
resultant distractible behaviour can make it more difficult for the
rest of the class to pay attention. Specialist Speech and Language
Therapists Liz Spooner and Jacqui Woodcock offer clear ideas for
differentiation along with ideas to help children apply their
improved skills, whilst supporting target setting and evaluation of
progress. They also make suggestions for adapting the Early Years
learning environment to maximise listening and they consider how
listening can be encouraged by analysing language and expression
when addressing children in the classroom. This practical guide not
only contains photocopiable resources, a full-colour plate section,
assessments and teaching suggestions with clear and digestible
explanations from professionals who work directly with children on
a daily basis, but it also pinpoints the behaviours that children
need to learn in order to become good listeners. Teaching Children
to Listen in the Early Years is an invaluable resource perfect for
Early Years practitioners and settings. For activities aimed
specifically at primary-age children, check out Teaching Children

This two-volume set presents a comprehensive syntactical picture of
Singapore Mandarin and discusses the distinguishing characteristics
of the Chinese language and especially Singapore Mandarin. As a
variety of Mandarin Chinese, Singapore Mandarin is characterised by
syntactic rules taking precedence over morphological rules. The
first volume provides an overview of the grammar of Singapore
Mandarin and argues that word order and functional words are
specifically important in the study of Singapore Mandarin. It also
explains the properties and functions of the nine grammatical
components, including phrase types, word classes, sentences,
subjects and predicates, predicates and objects, predicates and
complements, attributes and adverbials, complex predicate phrases
and prepositions and prepositional phrases. The second volume
describes expressions of number, quantity, time and place and
composite sentences, covering seven types of compound sentences,
eight types of complex sentences and connective words with a focus
on conjunctions. The concluding part of the study explores the
characteristics of Singapore Mandarin grammar compared with Chinese
Mandarin (Putonghua) and issues of language standardisation. With
rich and authentic language examples, the book will serve as a must
read for learners and teachers of Mandarin Chinese and linguistics
scholars interested in global Chinese and especially Singapore
Mandarin.
