PSHE Communication | Sharing Thoughts with Others

Social Education Quiz - Communication - Age 7-11 (Questions)

As a part of Social Education in PSHE, KS2 aged children look at different methods of communication. In this quiz, written specifically for children in years 3-6, we focus on those methods and help children understand the importance of effective communication.

To get along with others we need to be able to tell them what we are thinking. And we need them to tell us their thoughts too. This is called communication. Every day we communicate with different people in different ways. With some people you may communicate by talking, with others you may do it via gestures such as nodding your head. 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.

When we communicate it is important that we are polite and that we listen to others as well as making sure we are heard.
