IV. PROCEDURES A. Introduction The learners will be exposed to the walkthrough of the lesson expectations Content of the lesson will be presented Introduce the learning objectives to guide the learners on the learning targets
(Motivation) The teacher will flash a listening material, the learners will be asked to raise their hand (via google meet) if they experience to listen with the given materials
B. Development Learning Task 1:
The learners will be asked to decide whether each of the listening strategies below should be categorized as top-down or bottom-up strategies. This will be done orally.
_______________ 1. taking down notes
_______________ 2. listening for specific details _______________ 3. identifying the speaker _______________ 4. summarizing _______________ 5. drawing inferences _______________ 6. recognizing cognates _______________ 7. recognizing divisions between words _______________ 8. listening for the main idea _______________ 9. recognizing word-order patterns _______________ 10. making predictions
Learning Task 2 The learners will be asked to examine and identify whether a top- down or bottom-up listening strategy is being shown or applied in each scenario. This will be done via google form
1. Mr. Cruz, your English teacher, asked you to read some
information about a certain topic. Then, he instructed you to listen to a recorded material to find out whether or not the same points are mentioned. 2. A friend tries to explain how you can go on a trip to Palawan for the first time. You make sure you do not miss out any important details and instructions about the trip. 3. 3. In one of your classes, your teacher asked you to listen to a pre-recorded conversation and identify where the conversation took place. 4. 4. Your mother gave you a call and you were asked to buy some items at the grocery store. Since you were not familiar with the items she cited, you made sure to remember specific details she mentioned. 5. 5. While listening to a lecture, you saw one of your classmates taking down important notes. This classmate of yours also made a word map to connect those words and phrases that he/she listed. LISTENING STRATEGIES While listening is a usual skill that we often use as individuals, there are times when we need to use techniques or activities that will help us listen more effectively and focus on the main objective of a specific listening task.
These techniques which contribute directly to the comprehension and recall
of a listening input are called listening strategies. There are numerous listening strategies one may use or apply. They may depend on factors like the topic, type of listening material to be used and the purpose of listening, among others.
When listening based on purpose, familiarity with the topic and levels of difficulty, one may employ strategies which can be classified by the way the listener processes the input. Experts categorize these strategies as either top-down or bottom-up listening strategies.
Top-down listening strategies are considered listener-based strategies. In
these strategies, the listener uses background knowledge to make sense of what he/she is listening to. This means that he/she already knows a fair amount of information about the topic and he/she is able to relate a story or information into a previously established schema or prior knowledge.
Bottom-up listening strategies, on the other hand, are considered text-
based strategies. When using these strategies, the listener attempts to make sense of the language sound by sound or word by word, with less use of background knowledge. The listener relies on the language in the message (e.g. sounds, words and grammar) that creates the meaning.
Learning Task 3: (ASYNCHRONOUS) Asked the learners to listen to their
favorite English song and answer the following questions (This will be done via google docs)
1. What do you think is your chosen song about?
2. Which words or phrases helped you understand the context of your chosen song? Explain your answer. 3. How will you rate your familiarity of the context of your chosen song using a scale of 1 being the lowest to 10 as the highest? 4. Do you know of real-life scenarios or stories that you can relate to your chosen song? Cite at least one and explain how it relates to your chosen song.
C. Engagement Learning Task 4:
Directions: The learners will be tasked to study listen to Pres. Duterte’s SONA 2020 (July 27, 2020) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x0WglYr6Bpk They will be tasked to examine the excerpts taken from President Rodrigo Roa Duterte’s speech. As they read/listen, they will complete the table provided below. The table asks to provide specific details about some of the areas/concerns mentioned by the President. This will be done orally
Learning Task 5: ASYNCHRONOUS
Using the excerpt provided in the previous task, the learners will write a short essay that summarizes your expectations and realizations after reading or listening to it. (This will be done via google docs) Learning Task 6: The learners will be asked to least three real-life situations where you can employ top-down and bottom-up listening strategies. This will be done orally.
D. Assimilation Learning Task 7: (ASYNCHRONOUS) Think of a song, a poem or a story
that you would like to listen to. You may also use the ones you have saved or downloaded in your gadget. Employ at least one of the strategies discussed as you listen to your chosen material. After listening, write a short essay that reflects your understanding of the material you listened to and how it relates to your life as a person.
The learners will be ask to make a Venn Diagram and show the similarities and differences of listening strategies discussed.
V. REFLECTION The learners in their notebook journal or portfolio will write their personal insights about the lesson using the prompt below:
I understand that _____________________________________________________ I realize that__________________________________________________
