Anyone starts prepare your DC for Listening Comprehension, LC?

How to prepare them for LC? Any books to recommend?

Some tips to share about preparing for PSLE English Listening Comprehension that falls on 19 Sept, Friday.

You can do mock preparation at home. Once the child receives the paper, tell the child to scan through all the questions and answers to get an idea of what to expect and what to look out for. Play the CD that comes with the Listening Comprehension booklet and tell the child to only focus only on the paper and not be distracted by any other things as the child needs full concentration to use the ears to listen and use the eyes to match the corresponding answer.

Listen to the CD with the child and let the child attempt the questions. Parents only step in to guide the child after the child has listened to the passage twice and yet unable to get the correct answers. What the parents can do is to rewind the passage, highlight to the child which part is important and let the child try to answer the question again. If the child failed to get the answer, point out to the child the exact phrase and word in that part to get the answer.

The first practice may take a longer time but with the second or third practice, the child should get the technique of handling listening comprehension questions.
