Listening skills are integral to effective communication and are foundational for reading success, especially for children aged 6-7. During this developmental stage, children are not only learning to read but also to comprehend and engage with texts through discourse and interaction.

Parents and teachers should prioritize listening skills because they enhance a child's ability to follow instructions, participate in discussions, and develop social interactions. Effective listening nurtures a child’s understanding of stories, which improves retention and comprehension of what they read. When children practice active listening, they learn to focus, respond appropriately, and ask clarifying questions—all essential skills for academic achievement.

Moreover, developing listening skills at this age helps foster a love for reading. When adults read aloud, children are encouraged to listen with intention, augmenting their vocabulary and comprehension skills. This interactive listening also cultivates critical thinking and analytical abilities as children engage with narratives and identify themes or morals.

Incorporating listening activities, such as storytelling, audiobooks, or group discussions, not only makes learning enjoyable but also builds a strong literacy foundation. Therefore, emphasizing listening skills is crucial in nurturing confident readers and communicators, setting the stage for lifelong learning.
