Get your coat on! Wash your hands! Most preschoolers can't get through the day without a reminder to put on their "listening ears." It can be hard for them to consistently follow directions the first time-or the second time. This colorful volume gives plenty of examples of how and when to follow directions at home, at school, and out and about. Full-color photographs correlate directly with low-ATOS text to aid comprehension and complete sentences used throughout help readers with reading fluency.

Preschoolers are always reminded to "listen." But what does that mean? It means taking in what another person says quietly before responding, taking time to understand what someone is asking you to do, and it's often used as another way to say "follow these directions." The examples in this book help readers truly understand what listening is so they can implement it in their own classrooms, homes, and beyond. Low-ATOS text is achievable for new readers and correlated closely with full-color photographs.

In this [book], Murphy explains why we're not listening, what it's doing to us, and how we can reverse the trend. She makes accessible the psychology, neuroscience, and sociology of listening while also introducing us to some of the best listeners out there (including a CIA agent, focus group moderator, bartender, radio producer, and top furniture salesman) . . ."--Publisher provided.
