What's the best way to learn receptive skills?
Miranda Hamilton
July 26, 2021
We often think of speaking and writing as the most challenging of the four language skills but what about the receptive skills? With reading, learners have time to think, but listening in another language presents a very different set of challenges for the learner. How often have we heard learners complain ‘it’s too fast, teacher!’? So how can you help?
Some guides are designed to help teachers understand the subskills of listening, with activities, tips and strategies to help you develop your learners’ listening skills as they prepare for their exams.
Here are just a few of the ideas from the guides for you to try with your learners. They will work at all levels.
How many words?
This micro listening is a great activity to try towards the end of your listening lesson, when learners have already heard the recording, so they know the speakers’ voices and the topic.
• Select a short phrase, of around 10 words, from the listening you have just completed. Set up the audio so you are ready to press ‘Play’.
• Tell the learners to listen and count the number of words they hear. You will need to play the audio several times. Pairs discuss. Take a range of answers from the class, but don’t tell them the answer just yet.
• Write the phrase on the board and count the number of words with the class. Who was the closest?
• Now ask them to listen and read the phrase at the same time. This time they have to decide which words they hear most clearly, in other words, you want them to notice the stressed words. Ask why they think they heard these words most clearly. Explain that stressed words carry the key information.
This micro listening activity helps raise learners’ awareness of sounds, helping them notice the stressed words and preparing them to listen for key information.
Support every learner
In mixed-ability classes, put a few simple strategies in place so the whole class can listen to the same recording, and take part in the same activity. This means that no learner feels lost or left behind.
• Make the gap-fill or sentence-completion task more achievable and supply the first letter of the missing word. Alternatively supply the first and the final letter and indicate how many letters the missing word has.
• Provide an additional layer of support for weaker learners by giving them the audio script. They can read the script as they listen and use it to help them find the correct answers.
Prepare to listen, prepare to understand
Don’t be in too much of a hurry to hand out the listening task and press ‘Play’. Time spent in class before listening means learners are better prepared to understand.
• Before you listen, have a class discussion around the topic of the listening. This gives learners the opportunity not only to practice their speaking, but also to practice listening to one another. A good discussion will make them think about the main ideas they might hear when they listen. • Useful vocabulary always comes out of a class discussion, creating a very natural way to pre-teach vocabulary before they listen. Useful language linked to a discussion is easier to learn because learners have a context, which makes it easier to remember than pre-teaching vocabulary from a wordlist.
• Take your time to discuss the task and check understanding. Encourage the class to reflect on their discussion and predict the answers. Remember to write their predictions on the board. Did they guess correctly? It doesn’t matter if they did or not, what matters is that they are prepared and ready to listen to see if they were right.
Feeling prepared to listen means learners feel confident and ready to understand, both in the classroom and in their exam.

“Por mais de 40 anos, as brasileiras foram proibidas de jogar futebol. O veto começou em 1941, na ditadura do Estado Novo (1937-1945), quando o presidente Getúlio Vargas assinou um decreto-lei tirando das mulheres o direito de praticar esportes ‘incompatíveis com as condições de sua natureza’.”
(Adaptado de: Ricardo Westin, www12.senado.leg.br/noticias/especiais/arquivo. Acesso em 10.08.2023.)
Destacavam-se como argumentos à época, para tal proibição: que a violência dentro dos gramados prejudicaria a maior missão delas na sociedade, de serem mães; que uma cotovelada no seio poderia impedi-las de amamentar; que uma bolada na região do útero poderia retirar-lhes a capacidade de gerar filhos; que as jogadas desleais e os xingamentos levariam à degeneração moral do “sexo frágil”.
Neste ano de 2023 realizou-se a nona edição da Copa do Mundo Feminina de Futebol com sedes na Austrália e Nova Zelândia. No Brasil, o governo federal decretou ponto facultativo nos dias de jogos da seleção brasileira que disputou a Copa, num claro avanço do esporte no país. No entanto, nem sempre as mulheres tiveram direito de praticar esse esporte, como nos atesta o texto. Pode-se afirmar que os motivos que levaram o governo Vargas a proibir esse esporte feminino se relacionam ao:
Quando os europeus chegaram por aqui, não existia um povo brasileiro, mato-grossense ou cuiabense. Os povos originários que aqui habitavam foram genericamente denominados de índios pelos colonizadores. Esta denominação, utilizada ainda hoje, passa uma impressão errada, como se uma única palavra designasse um único povo, com uma só cultura e até com o mesmo tipo físico.
Deve-se considerar e apreender, para uma melhor interpretação sobre os povos originários, o fato de que tais povos:
A relação entre História e Biografia não nasceu na contemporaneidade, como podemos ver no texto de Plutarco (45 d.c.) sobre Júlio César de Roma:
“Durante sua permanência na Espanha, lia ele, em um dia de folga, alguns trechos da história de Alexandre, e caiu, depois dessa leitura, numa meditação profunda e chorou. Seus amigos espantados, perguntaram-lhe o motivo de suas lágrimas. “não vos parece – disse ele – justo motivo de dor que Alexandre, na idade em que estou, já tivesse conquistado tantos países, ao passo que eu nada ainda fiz de memorável”. Entregou-se ao trabalho; e, em poucos dias, recrutou dez coortes, além das vinte que encontrara. Marchou contra os galegos e os lusos, vencendo-os, e avançou até o mar externo, subjugando países ainda não submetidos aos romanos.”
(PLUTARCO . Alexandre e César – As vidas comparadas dos maiores guerreiros da Antiguidade. Coleção Clássicos Ilustrados. Tradução: Veiga, Hélio. São Paulo. Ediouro. 2004. P 172.)
Atualmente, essa perspectiva no ensino de História não é mais predominante, mas é indiscutível a importância do documento acima, como uma valiosa fonte acerca de outra temporalidade. A respeito da história romana narrada no documento, pode-se concluir que:
“(...) a crise do paradigma da ciência moderna não constitui um pântano cinzento de cepticismo ou de irracionalismo. É antes o retrato de uma família intelectual numerosa e instável, mas também criativa e fascinante (...).”
(SANTOS, Boaventura de Sousa. Um discurso sobre as ciências. Cortez. 3ª ed. SP. 2005. pp. 58.)
Sobre o pensamento apresentado pelo pensador português acerca de um novo paradigma que se avizinha, pode-se aferir que:
A fronteira da Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte (Otan) com a Rússia aumentou em extensão com o ingresso do novo membro da aliança militar.
O novo membro que se localiza no norte da Europa, cuja capital é Helsinque e que tem uma extensa fronteira com a Rússia, denomina-se:
A região do Tigré, cuja maioria da população é de uma etnia local, os tigreanos, tornou-se o estopim de um dos mais sangrentos conflitos no continente africano, que pode contribuir para desestabilizar outros países do continente.
A região do Tigré localiza-se no país denominado:
