 WHAT’S IS IT

What is Listening?
Listening is the ability to accurately receive and interpret the messages in
the communication process.

What is Active Listening?

An active listener not only pays attention but withholds judgment during the
speakers turn and reflects on what's being said.

Keys to Effective Listening

1. Maintain eye contact with the speaker if possible.
2. Pay attention and listen for ideas.
3. Find areas of interest.
4. Judge content, not delivery.
5. Don't interrupt, and be patient.
6. Hold back your points or counter points.
7. Resist distractions.
8. Pay attention to the facial expression and gesture of the one speaking.
9. Keep your mind open , and be flexible.
10. Ask questions during pauses and give feedback.
11. Listen with empathy to try and see the speaker's point of view.
12. Anticipate, summarize, weigh the evidence, and look between the lines.

How do we connect critical thinking in getting the worth of ideas in the text
listened to?
Critical thinking occurs whenever people figure out what to believe or what to do,
and do so in a reasonable, reflective way. The concepts and principles of critical
thinking can be applied to any context or case, but only by reflecting upon the
nature of that application. Critical thinking skills include observation,
interpretation, analysis, inference, evaluation, explanation, and metacognition.

Critical thinkers are those who are able to do the following:

● Recognize problems and find workable solutions to those problems

● Understand the importance of prioritization in the hierarchy of problem
solving tasks
● Gather relevant information
● Read between the lines by recognizing what is not said or stated
● Use language clearly, efficiently, and with efficacy
● Interpret data and form conclusions based on that data
● Determine the presence of lack of logical relationships
● Make sound conclusions and/or generalizations based on given data

3
 ● Test conclusions and generalizations
● Reconstruct one’s patterns of beliefs on the basis of wider experience
● Render accurate judgments about specific things and qualities in
everyday life
Therefore, critical thinkers must engage in highly active listening to further their
critical thinking skills. People can use critical thinking skills to understand,
interpret, and assess what they hear in order to formulate appropriate reactions or
responses. These skills allow people to organize the information that they hear,
understand its context or relevance, recognize unstated assumptions, make logical
connections between ideas, determine the truth values, and draw conclusions.

WHAT'S MORE

You are well equipped now with the things you've learned from the
previous part. Now, let's do this activity.

Direction: Listen to the song "Mean" by Taylor Swift. Pick out at least 5 (five)
lines that are worthy ideas. Write them in your notebook.

Video source of song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZsjEiWb5zE

"Mean"
You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me
You have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feeling like a nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded
You, picking on the weaker man
Well you can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know, what you don't know...
Someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your
humiliation You have pointed out my
flaws again
As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down
Trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again

4
 I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now
'Cause you can't lead me down that road
And you don't know, what you don't know...
Someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion
But nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing
But all you are is mean
All you are is mean
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
But someday I'll be living in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so?...
Someday I'll be living in a big old city (Why you gotta be so?...)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean (Why you gotta be so?...)
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me (Why you gotta be so?...)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

Script (Frozen I) Ending Scene

Anna hears the sound of a sword being drawn from its scabbard. She turns and
sees Hans, behind Elsa, as he raises his sword over his head.

ANNA
Elsa.

Anna looks back at Kristoff as he runs for her. She gives him a longing look, but
then turns away from him and then...
Using all of her remaining strength, as Hans brings his sword down, Anna throws
herself in front of Elsa.

ANNA
No!

In that instant, Anna freezes to solid ice. The sword hits her instead of Elsa. The
sword shatters completely. The force of it sends Hans flying back and knocks him
out.

ELSA
Anna!

Elsa rushes to Anna and touches her sister's frozen face.

ELSA
Oh, Anna -- no -- no, please no.
Olaf walks up and sees Anna, frozen.

OLAF
confused, sad
Anna?

Elsa hugs Anna and cries.

Kristoff watches in shocked despair. Sven steps up to his side.
Citizens and dignitaries on the castle walls bow their heads.
All of Arendelle is joined in somber silence.
But then, Anna warms. She begins to thaw.
Olaf looks up and gasps. Kristoff and Sven notice, light up.
Anna bends her arm and embraces Elsa.

6
ELSA
Wha-? Anna?
Anna opens her eyes. She smiles at Elsa, relieved.

ANNA
Oh, Elsa.
They embrace.

ELSA
-- You sacrificed yourself for me?

ANNA
weak
-- I love you.

Olaf realizes what's happened. He's so excited about it, he lifts his head right off his
body and exclaims --

OLAF
An act of true love will thaw a frozen heart.

Seat Belts
"Click!" That's the sound of safety. That's the sound of survival.
That's the sound of a seat belt locking in place. Seat belts save lives and
that's a fact. That's why I don't drive anywhere until mine is tight.
Choosing to wear your seat belt is as simple as choosing between life and
death. Which one do you choose?
Think about it. When you're driving in a car, you may be going 60
MPH or faster. That car is zipping down the road. Then somebody ahead
of you locks up his or her brakes. Your driver doesn't have time to stop.
The car that you are in crashes. Your car was going 60 miles per hour.
Now it has suddenly stopped. Your body, however, is still going 60 MPH.
What's going to stop your body? Will it be the windshield or your seat
belt? Every time that you get into a car you make that choice. I choose the
seat belt.
