Connecting with Others

"Good communication is the bridge between confusion and clarity."

How We Share Ideas

Learning to understand one another.

Every day, we communicate with people around us. It is very important to listen carefully to our friends and family when they talk.

Sometimes we speak out loud to share our thoughts, and sometimes we write a text message on our phones. If we do not understand something, it is always okay to ask a question.

Our faces talk, too! A simple smile can show that we are happy and friendly. When we give a kind answer, we help build trust. Good communication helps us connect with the whole world.
