Blog Assignment Week 4

As I evaluated myself as a communicator I communicate better in small groups than in large groups. When it comes to public speaking and large crowds I do not  make good  eye contact to crowds and my voice is not loud for the crowd not to hear me. The one thing that surprise me when it comes to small groups is a a good communicator when it comes to talking to people one by one. When I am talking to people one by one I am able to make eye contact and I am not shy when it comes to communicating.  The insights about communication that I have gained this week is I am a good communicator of expressing my thoughts and feelings of when it comes to staff meetings, parent-teacher conference, home visits, parent meetings, and policy council meetings. I am also a good communicator when it comes to giving a advice and also a good listener. I be truthful and tell it like it is. For example last week my brother call me wanted to leave his girlfriend and he was asking me what should I do because he was stress out. He was saying they arguing to much in front of his daughter, she was not working, and all this other stuff. I told him on the telephone I can't tell you what to do only you have to make that decision and my last words was to him was pray about it. I told him that the both of them do not argue in front of my niece and that is not good for her cause she listening to y'all arguing and it can effect her. This is how I evaluated myself as a communicator.

I do find myself of communicating different to people that are from different cultures. I also find myself of learning of talking about their language, their background, the food, and the family traditions they do with their families. I also communicate by them of using sign language and translate newsletter, daily sheets, and parent meeting in their culture. A good example in my classroom is that four of my children are Spanish students and the other four are African America. In the classroom that I have the menus posted with English and Spanish, North Carolina State Regulations, and the labels of toys in the classroom. The three strategies that would help me communicate more effectively the people or groups that I have identified is using the Platinum Rule when it comes communication and culture, how you talk to people, and the way and the tone of your voice when you are communicated. As being a mother, teacher, and educator I will be a positive influence of making eye contact and talking to people the way I would want them to talk to me. I would also be a good listener to other people and be honest and open as I can when it comes to communication.

Blog Assignment Week 2

The characters’ relationships are based on the ways of the communication is

they giving each other eye contact as they are communication. They also  would

communicate through body language. The feeling and expressing of the nonverbal

behavior that you are observing is happy, smiling, laughing. They also gave each other

a lot of hugs.

            The assumptions of the characters and plot based on which the interpreted

the communication  that I observe is that are well communicated family that the

parents love the children. They also was involve in their children lives. 

            My assumptions that I would have of watching a show is learning

how a family communicates with their children and the ways of doing it. 

The assumptions that I also had was the parents love their children and all

of the children was different and special in their own way.

Blog Assignment: Communication

My parents was the person that demonstrate the competent communication with

a particular context. As a family we would have family meeting discussing once a month

and we would talk about anything.  When I was coming up there were a lot of strangers

adducting and taking children from school and from the park. I remember my parents

would say do not talk to stranger at all. If a stranger talk to us to scream to the top of our

 lungs and run as fast as we can and try to get away to get help and call the police. The

other topic my parents would talk about is “sex”. As we approach the teenage years our

parents told us what kind of disease that was out there if you have unprotected sex and

the precautions to take when we do had sex.

            The behaviors that my parents exhibit that made me effective is that let us

express our thoughts and ideas in a positive manner. It made us feel good to go and

communicate with them about anything. We also form a trusting bond with our parents

also.

            I would want to model some of my communication behaviors after my parents

because I want to keep a open communication with my daughter. I feel like if you are

open with your children they will communicate with you about anything. They also want

be scare and talk to you. These days of time have change and children have so much peer

pressure on their mine. So I rather from my daughter to hear from me than somebody

else.
