Listening to Other People

Sometimes when people talk, I do not listen.

I am thinking about other things.

People do not like it when I do not listen

to them.

They might not have fun talking to me.

What Should I Do?

I will try to listen to people I will talk whenever I like

when they are talking to me. and I do not need to listen to
other people.
Well Done! Great Choice!
I can try to listen to what other people are saying.
I can try to:
• focus on the other person;
• look at the other person’s mouth;
• think about what they are saying;
• ask them questions about it.

My teacher can help me with this.

This will make my friends and

teachers happy.
 Hmmm... Let’s Think About
What Happens If We
Do Not Listen to Other People
In a conversation, it is important to talk but it is also important to listen to what
the other person is saying to me.

With the teacher, it is important to listen

to what they are telling me or what
they are asking me to do.

If I do not listen, I won’t understand

what they are saying to me. It is rude
not to listen.

How would you feel if your friend or

your teacher did not listen to you?
 It Is Important to
Listen to Other People
I will try to remember to listen carefully to what other
people are saying.

I will try to stop what I am doing or thinking about and

look at the other person.

My teacher will help me with this.

My friends will feel happy and we

can have nice chats.
