Communication

In the classroom communication is the key. As teachers we must be aware of how we are relaying a message and how our students are receiving it. I think it is very easy to assume that the person/people we communicate with know more about the topic of discussion than they actually do. This can create communication problems so we must keep in mind that when we are speaking/writing/etc. that we include all the information needed to relay the correct message. Our students will also need to practice their communication skills. I love the picture activity from class. It is a fun and effective way to improve communication skills that I plan on using in my classroom.
