Listening walk

Let us go on a listening walk. Stand up, stay quiet and listen. Then play the loud and quiet game.

Let us listen

  1. Let's go for a listening walk.

    Do it: Stand up and stretch

  2. Stop. Stand still. Be very quiet.

    Do it: Put a finger on your lips

  3. What can you hear? A bird? A car? The wind?

    Do it: Cup your hand to your ear

  4. Listen again. What is far away? What is close?

    Do it: Turn your head slowly

My listening walk

Go outside, or sit by a window. Tap each sound that you hear. Can you find three?

Loud or quiet?

A big drum goes boom. Is it loud or quiet?

For grown-ups

Take a real listening walk if you can: stop every few steps and ask what your child can hear. Name the sounds in English together.

Listening carefully to sounds in the world is the first step towards hearing the sounds in words.

Nothing is timed and nothing is sent anywhere. Stars and stickers stay on this device. The sound button at the bottom left turns sound effects off.

This matches Level 0, week 1: Hello and goodbye (listening walk).
