This lesson discussed two receptive language skills: reading and listening. I learned that reading and listening are equally important to teach and incorporate into lesson planning. The unit text explained that individuals use receptive skills for a purpose for either entertainment/recreation, or to obtain any other goal. I appreciated this distinction as it plays into the argument for fun, enthralling lesson activities that serve a dual purpose of entertaining and informing students, doubling the motivation for attending. The unit also discussed preteaching for difficult new structures or vocabulary, and also included a section on building cultural context for learners to interact with reading/listening material.
