In Room 9 we were also focussing on our Inquiry topic of Communication and have been practicing how to communicate clearly with each other.
We had a go at sitting back to back with a buddy and giving them instructions to follow. We called this Communication Twins.
We used coloured rods and simple pictures which one person described to their buddy. The buddy then had to follow the instructions on how to create the same image without seeing it.
Check out how we got on....
When we had compared images we had a chat about whether our communication was clear enough and also how we could improve.
It was lots of fun!
What a wonderful activity Mrs Harding. It's pretty tricky following instructions, but it looks as if they listened very carefully!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic activity Mrs Harding. I bet the children enjoyed it. They did really well following each other's instructions.

What a great idea. I bet the students quickly learned that they have to be very clear with their instructions - and I bet it was lots of fun too!
