What is communication?

We defined communication as talking. But after our discussion, reflection on our daily life experiences, and a game, we have understood that communication isn’t only talking but listening and understanding as well. It is a two-way process. To fully understand this discussion, we played “Pass the Message”. We lined up and whispered the message sent by our teacher to the person in front of us until the message reached the last person in line. The last person had to shout out the message. We could say that the communication was effective if the last person was able to say the original message. It was our first time doing this activity, so we struggled delivering the right message to the last person in line. We hope to do better next time.

We tried playing this game again on Friday. We struggled passing the message again and realized that we have to use our listening ears and make sure that the words are pronounced correctly, otherwise the message will be delivered wrong.

Our parents got to see how we played this game and how we assessed ourselves using our SOLO taxonomy rubric on where we think we are in the unit. Thank you, our dear parents, for coming and joining us to have fun and learn at the same time.

Workstations

We get to enjoy different activities during our free play time, such as playing the ukulele, building blocks, solving Math problems, playing pretend, doing crafts, and a lot more!

The temperature has risen slightly this week, so we have been enjoying our playtime outside.

Happy weekend!
