Talking Points

• Communication: "Communication is how we share our thoughts and feelings with others. It's important to listen carefully and speak clearly."
• Understanding: "Understanding means we try to comprehend what others are saying. We can ask questions if we don't understand."
• Presentation: "When we present something, we share it with others. We can use pictures, words, or even actions to make our presentation interesting."
