What is Listener Responding?

Listener Responding (LR) sometimes known as receptive language, requires the listener to respond to another’s verbal behavior. Here’s an example: if you say “Where are your shoes!?” and your kids respond by getting their shoes. Or maybe in the classroom you say “Everyone get your glue!” and your students respond by taking their glue out.
