On our first year of subscribing to Highlights Library Philippines, another student in the Intermediate Level, Genill Marquisse Pullan who was mentored by Ms. Jillian Frias, earned the Bronze Award in the Highlights Library Listening Competition held online via Zoom on March 9, 2024. The annual Listening Competition aims to encourage the students to become effective listeners. Listening enhances the ability to understand other people better and it also makes the experience of conversations more enjoyable and meaningful.
This competition is organized and hosted by Highlights Library, an all-in-one digital reading tool which focuses on helping children discover and nurture the love for reading, and provides teachers and parents with tools to support their discovery and reading comprehension. The participants in the competition had to listen to 5 randomly selected books, answer 10 questions for each book, and rated according to their comprehension, organization, pronunciation, grammar, voice quality, and pacing.
