Goal 1. Listening — Intermediate High, Objective IH 1.01
The learner will comprehend spoken English in a variety of personal, social, and academic contexts.
Students will begin to use expanded vocabulary to participate effectively in social and academic conversations and presentations with occasional difficulty. They may continue to use forms of non-verbal communication to demonstrate comprehension, but will rely more upon verbal skills. Learning objectives focus on sequencing, distinguishing long and short vowels, retelling stories with richer vocabulary, incorporating grammatical rules, writing all letters of the alphabet, writing simple sentences and editing them, following one-step and two-step directions, and comprehending English spoken at a normal speed.
Listen and respond to most conversational and academic questions on familiar topics spoken at a normal speed with some difficulty.
