Question: 1 / 135

Which skill is Mrs. Kelly focusing on by having students repeat longer sentences each day?

Auditory blending.

Auditory discrimination.

Auditory skills.

Auditory memory.

Mrs. Kelly is focusing on auditory memory by having students repeat longer sentences each day. Auditory memory involves the ability to remember and recall information that is heard. By repetitively engaging students in this exercise, she is helping them develop their capacity to listen to a sentence, process it, and then accurately reproduce it. This practice not only reinforces the students' memory of the auditory information but also enhances their ability to understand and manipulate language. In this context, auditory discrimination and auditory blending pertain to different aspects of listening and language skills. Auditory discrimination involves distinguishing between different sounds, which is not the primary skill being targeted by repeating sentences, while auditory blending refers to combining sounds to form words, which is also different from simply recalling sentences. Auditory skills is a broader term that encompasses various listening abilities, but the specific focus here is on how well students can remember and repeat the longer sentences, thus strengthening their auditory memory.
