The listener must now try to reconstruct a series of sounds into individual words >
phrases > sentences > text.
•
If any of this process is interrupted, the source of information (i.e. the text) is gone.
The only option the listener now has is to a) ask the speaker to repeat something, or
b) ask the teacher to replay the text. Sometimes, neither of these are possible, and
so the listener must try to make inferences about possible meanings they may have
missed.

In
contrast to this, when a reader encounters difficulties
with a reading text, they
typically go back to the start of the phrases or section that cause difficulty, and read
it again. As many times as they like.
•
This means reading texts:
•
Can provide a sense of security for learners
•
Can be easier
for teachers to work with, especially in
identifying the source of
miscomprehension
•
Allow students more time to consider and work with language
•
Lend themselves well to being cut up, reorganized, stuck on the walls of the room,
matched etc.….all tasks with kinesthetic elements to them
