Talking Points
- Communication is about sharing information with others. You can do this by talking, writing, or using gestures. "Communication is like sharing a piece of your favorite cake with a friend."
- Understanding your audience is important. Think about who you are talking to and adjust your communication style accordingly. "Just like how you talk differently to your friends and teachers, communication can change based on who you're talking to."
- Presenting information clearly means organizing your thoughts and using clear language. Practice makes perfect! "Presenting is like telling a story, make sure your audience can follow along easily."
