Transmission of communication

Introduction:

For this piece of coursework I had to do two interactions; one with a group of people and the second on a one on one basis. I did my two interactions at Socatots ‘The soccer-specific physical play concept for pre-school children’. At Socatots they encourage children to learn and develop their fine and gross motor skills by partaking in football related games and learning.

My second interaction was a one on one activity with *Stuart. We passed a football between each other and count how many times we managed to do this.

I also had to demonstrate what I wanted them to do and use a lot of non-verbal communication. In the second activity I had to again use terms and words that a 4 year old can understand. I also tried to use open and warming body language to make *Stuart feel more comfortable.

This is a primary source of information. This is a good and source ...

Here's what a teacher thought of this essay

This is a nice clear and concise essay. It looks at the use of communication in two different activities. It is at fairly basic descriptive level and lacks a little depth in places. This could be greatly enhanced by trying to justify why communication skills were used in a particular way. This would raise the level of the writing and help to reach higher grades. ***
