Description

All 5 lessons are complete — notice which listening moves keep a discussion going, use listening moves before, during, and after we listen, name our purpose and audience before we speak, name non-verbal moves that add meaning to a message, and choose precise words that fit our purpose.

Every lesson comes with a full teaching set: a lesson plan, a worksheet, homework, and a handout. The unit also includes 5 exit cards, 2 quizzes, a project, and an assignment.
