Listening Skills
Encourage your child to look at you when you are giving directions.
Have your child repeat the directions in his or her own words.
Provide longer directions as a list and count out the steps using your fingers for each step, so the child knows how many things to do.
When reading out loud with your child, stop frequently and have your child answer questions about what happened or retell what happened in his or her own words.
