PERCEPTUAL SKILLS
AUDITORY PERCEPTION
-Is the ability of the brain to make contact the outside world through
hearing.
-Hearing plays a cardinal role in the learning of a language. Even though
a child may have perfect hearing, it is possible that he does not
perceive and conceptualize what he hears properly. As is the case with
visual perception where the child regards a part as a whole, it is
possible for a child to accept a part of word as a whole, even though he
has in fact heard the whole word. If he suffers from erroneous auditory
perception and hears words differently, he will also speak and produce
them differently. A child’s auditory perception can be disorganized or
fragmentary.
Dysfunction of auditory perceptual
-Children with auditory perceptual dysfunction are confused by their
inadequate reception of information from the outside world.
• They find it difficult to remember what they have heard.
• They confuse that sounds similar and they forget messages they
were sent to convey, or they return with the wrong response or
object, as a result of auditory confusion. Their becoming is thus
impended (Grove 1972:44).
1.3 AUDITORY MEMORY- Is the ability to remember what the ear has
heard, this includes the ability to recall and to produce auditory
information in the correct order, association, and comprehension.

our country, where children from different cultures must learn to
understand one another and work together. Martha Maarten’s
say, children’s literature can be instrumental in building a nation.
