Listening and identifying sounds

With the objective of developing auditory discrimination, we teachers of English apply this method of listening and identifying sounds for all levels of books in Infantil. What we first do, is explaining the children that they have to listen carefully to the sounds we teachers are about to play. They should keep completely silent in order to make the activity easier for the whole class. We play the sound once, and try to make children guess what they´ve heard. If nobody gives us the correct answer, which is rather unusual, we play it a second time. Now, it is time to ask children to open their books and identify the picture that shows the sound they have heard.
The Listening and identifying sound exercises will provide children with experiences that stimulate listening and speaking, and when these skills are developed early in childhood, children are not only building oral language but they are being prepared to understand the concept of written language.
