Purchase options and add-ons

With the Common Core State Standards emphasizing listening and speaking across the curriculum, these long-neglected language arts are regaining a place in schools. For teachers, this means reexamining practices and rethinking expectations. How much do we know about teaching listening and speaking as the complex communication skills they are? How do we teach students to discuss appropriately, integrate and understand the mountains of information they receive, and express themselves clearly and effectively?

In this lively and practical book, 20-year teaching veteran Erik Palmer presents an approach aligned to the six Common Core anchor standards for speaking and listening but focused on preparing students for 21st century communication inside and beyond the classroom. Here, you'll get concrete guidance for teaching and assessing


* Collaborative discussion

* Listening and media literacy

* Questioning and reasoning

* Speech presentation

* Effective multimedia use

* Adapting speech to different content and tasks

With due respect to reading and writing, we do most of our communicating—in the classroom and in life—through listening and speaking. Filled with examples and specific activities targeted to variety of subjects and grade levels, this book is an essential resource for all teachers interested in helping students acquire core skills that cross the content areas and support long-term success.

    Covers so many crucial skills for 21st century youth.
  • Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2015
    I simply didn't get a lot out of this one...I have read other books on student-led discussions and this book seemed to be more life a "cliff notes" version. Not at all bad, but no silver bullet found.

  • Reviewed in the United States on July 28, 2014
    I have just started reading Erik's newest book, having already read and used information from his other books on speaking. His materials have provided me with a structure for teaching speech to middle school students and the corporation has adopted his PVLEGS approach to speaking for every grade level. I am currently focused on his chapter on developing active listening skills. My hope is to add this to my classes and share it with the other staff members at the high school. It has helped me to focus on the need to systematically, intentionally instruct students how to focus on their listening skills. He refers to the idea that roughly 60% of communication these days in listening based. Consider technology-based conferences and webinars as experiences of the 21st century. As he has in his other materials, he provides practical applications and guides the reader to ways to approach the skill. I also appreciate how he summarizes the Core requirements by grade level from grades 1 through 12 so I can see how the skills scaffold.
