Communication

This KS2 PSHE quiz will help you identify the different ways we can communicate with each other in various settings and help you understand the importance of effective communication.

Communication is about getting messages from one person to another. Every day we communicate with different people in different ways. With some people you may communicate by talking which is called verbal communication, with others you may communicate through gestures such as nodding your head, which is called non-verbal communication. We also communicate through reading and writing, maybe you text or email your friends in this way or perhaps you use sign language or braille. There are lots of ways we can communicate with each other and it is an important part of learning and development, it helps us understand the world around us and lets us share our thoughts and feelings with others. When we communicate it is important that we are polite and that we listen to others as well as making sure we are heard.
