What is It
When we listen, our goal is not only to listen but also to respond and interact with
others to show that we understand what we listened to. So, we listen for a purpose. Here are
the seven (7) types of activities for listening with a purpose.

The Seven (7) Types of Activities for Listening with a Purpose

1. Listening for the Main Idea

The purpose of this type of listening is to train students to grasp the main points or
general information presented in the audio. It is appropriate for short stories, songs, poems
and the likes.

Example:
Questions Answers
What is the listening text about? The listening text is about a daughter
who appreciates the support of her
mother.
What is the main idea of the song? Glowing Inside by Nikki Gil is about her
appreciation to her mother.

2. Listening for Details

The purpose of this is to get specific information that are necessary or important. The
details maybe hours, dates, names, places, etc. It answers the questions, who,
what, when, where, how.

Example:
Question Answer

Day.

7
3. Listening for a Sequence

This is very useful in listening for instructions or procedure, like cooking or a DIY or do-
it-yourself audio. You need to get the right order or sequence. You need to write down series
of steps, so you will come up with the desired goal.

Example:

Question Answer
Which comes first in the lyrics of the __2__lighting of the Christmas tree
song ‘Christmas in our hearts? _3___singing of Merry Christmas
_1___exchanging of gifts

4. Listening for specific vocabulary

Listening may also be a strategy to broaden vocabulary. Like “Glowing Inside” is a new
word that has another meaning aside from what you already know. It can be a light produced
by a body heated to luminosity, incandescence for its denotative or (dictionary/literary
meaning) or a warm feeling, as of pleasure or well-being for its connotative (personal or
associated/related meaning).

Example:
Question Answer
What is the meaning of the word Denotative: Manger is found in a stable
manger? where grasses where put to feed horses.
Connotative: Manger symbolizes
humility because Jesus, even though a
son of God, was put on a manger when
He was born.

5. Listening for Cultural Interest

The purpose of this is to give you a picture of a special holiday, tradition or occasion
which is popular with another culture. It usually answers the question:

Example:

Question Answer
How does Christmas celebration differ Christmas in the Philippines is
from the celebration of other celebrated longer than other countries.
countries? We have what we call novena or nine
consecutive days of hearing mass.

8
6. Listening for Attitude and Opinions

Attitudes and opinions can be inferred from a listening text. It can convey varying
degrees of emotions or feelings from a mild criticism to strong disagreement. A student, like
you, should be able to discern different attitudes and opinions how the speaker feels.

Example:

Question Answer

What emotion can be inferred from the It can be inferred that gratefulness and
song, Christmas in Our Hearts? joy for the birth of our Savior, Jesus
Christ can be felt in the song.

7. Listening for Functional Language

The purpose of this listening activity is for conversation such as to accept or decline
invitations, give suggestions or advice, etc. Example of this is your daily conversation where
you listen and react to the person you are conversing with. Here, someone tells you something
and you are going to listen, say a conversation with your mother or over a phone or video call.

Example:

Question Answer
Mother: Good morning, anak. What do You: Just what you will serve, Ma. Thank
