This unit covered teaching the receptive skills of reading and listening. It detailed what they are, and how they are equally important to foster in students when teaching them the language. I found it interesting that while potentially difficult language included in some reading or listening samples should be pre-taught, not *all* of it should always be covered, because it will help students to really think and work with the language to try and sort out the meaning of some of the words they don't understand. It was also brought up how English is often non-phonetic, and how there are many words that are pronounced the same but having different spellings and different meanings. This made me think about the need to find ways to alleviate the potential for confusion in students when learning these words.
