This graphic is so helpful for explaining why children might appear to "hear" you, but not be "listening" -- or, to put it in other words, why they might look at you when you speak, or might even be able to repeat back the sounds that you made, but might not have comprehended a direction that you gave them, or might not have even looked up from their play.
A child might detect that a new sound (like you calling their name) is happening in the room, but not discriminate that the sound is important or directed at them.
They might detect the sound, and discriminate it from other noises in the environment such that they recognize it as their name and try to tune in...but then not be able to identify the specific things that you're saying.
They might identify what you're saying, but not comprehend what the individual words mean, or be able to successfully turn it into a statement or question that they understand and process and can act on.
And an adult might watch this happen and then turn away and say, frustrated, "They heard me, they just chose not to listen!" or "They heard everything I said and then they broke the rule anyway!", not realizing that the child's hearing, processing, auditory systems are still learning and practicing and doing their best.
[Image description: A graphic from the Instagram handle Deafinitely Communicating (). It has a picture of a dark-skinned ear, with four different-colored "wave" shaped semicircles going into the ear. The text next to it reads, "I know you hear me! ...Yes, but there's levels to hearing. I may hear you, but not understand you." Below the ear and the text are numbers 1-4, colored the same as the different-colored "waves" going into the ear, indicating that these are 4 facets of the process of hearing/understanding:
1. Detection
2. Discrimination
3. Identification
4. Comprehension

π Three cheers for our Knowsley Mums who successfully completed their Level 2 Mental Health First Aid for Youth training in partnership with Evolving Mindset !
Delivered by One Knowsley's Social Prescribing Team, the Knowsley Mums group meets every Friday 9.30am-11am at Northwood Community Primary School, Kirkby . We hosted a little celebration for the Mums alongside guests from Knowsley Healthier Together .
If you'd like to join the group, just come along.
Well done to our Northwood actors who have spent weeks working on their performance on Midsummer Nights Dream and went to the Shakespeare Festival yesterday and the new theatre in Prescot to perform it. They were articulate, dramatic, made excellent use of props and stayed in their character roles brilliantly. We are so very proud of how hard they worked and of the school staff that worked so hard to support them. Well done to everyone involved and also to Yewtree Primary Academy and SMAA primary school who performed on the same night - you were all fabulous!
