Auditory Comprehension Lesson Plans for Recognizing Patters and Word Relationships

This bundle includes volume 1, volume 2, and volume 3 of my bottom-up listening resources, and each have full lesson plans that get your students listening to a series of words, phrases and sentences and distinguishing the different sounds and patterns. This method flips the process and helps them build their listening skills from the bottom-up.

If you’re looking for a more impactful way to level up your ELL or ESL students’ listening skills, this resource is for you! The design of these auditory comprehension lesson plans for recognizing patters and word relationships keeps students actively engaged in the nuances of the instruction. The Bundle is great for primary and middle school students, speech therapy, attention training, daily auditory practice, or sub plans. The instruction requires no prior knowledge in bottom-up listening – each resource is written in a way that you can easily follow.

THE POWER OF BOTTOM-UP LISTENING

While most auditory comprehension exercises develop students’ listening skills from the top-down (listening and answering questions) this lesson plan gets your students thinking about the relationship between sounds and words while building better linguistic awareness. By listening for and distinguishing patterns, relationships, and ideas between words and sentences, language learners using this approach are better able to develop life-long listening strategies that can be applied to real-life situations.

About the Package

This bundle includes PDF files that can be opened using your preferred PDF reader. When you purchase this bundle, you will have access to each individual resource. Each resource comes with a lesson plan and detailed resource notes that walk you through how to teach using the bottom-up approach.

This Bundle includes three resources for bottom-up auditory comprehension:

• volume 1
• volume 2
• volume 3

***The bottom-up approach to listening can be intimidating at first. However, from experience, the concept is quickly understood after multiple teaching sessions, and its benefits are manifold. For optimal success, it is recommended that this strategy not be done in isolation but revisited and interwoven with top-down listening approaches. Check out some of my listening resources that include audio.
