Communication skills include starting conversations, using eye contact, knowing what to talk about and taking turns to speak and listen. 38 People can share thoughts and feelings when they speak and listen in a conversation. Listening helps you discover new ideas and understand how others are feeling because you’re seeing things through someone else’s eyes. Radio presenter (主持人) Emma Barnett says that of all the ways people communicate, talking gets the message across best because this way makes it easier to understand what someone really means. A good conversation makes people understand others better and know their feelings and moods. 39 A conversation involves (包含) taking turns to talk. Some people have a lot to say; others need encouragement to speak, so make sure everyone has a chance to join in.

Communication skills include starting conversations, using eye contact, knowing what to talk about and taking turns to speak and listen. 38 People can share thoughts and feelings when they speak and listen in a conversation. Listening helps you discover new ideas and understand how others are feeling because you’re seeing things through someone else’s eyes. Radio presenter (主持人) Emma Barnett says that of all the ways people communicate, talking gets the message across best because this way makes it easier to understand what someone really means. A good conversation makes people understand others better and know their feelings and moods. 39 A conversation involves (包含) taking turns to talk.

The corner is on the first floor of the art building, and it is open to all students after school every day. 61 We also prepared all kinds of simple tools and materials, such as scissors, coloured paper and dough, for students to use for free. Many local craft masters volunteer to come to our school and teach us skills in their free time. 62 They also tell us the history and cultural meaning of each craft, which helps us understand traditional arts better. For example, a paper-cutting master once taught us how to cut a dragon pattern and told us it stands for good luck in Chinese culture. 63 At first, most of us just went there to watch the masters make artworks, but now we all like to try making them by ourselves. Some students are good at making dough figurines, and some create beautiful paper-cuts. We even set up a small shelf in the corner to show our best works. We have gained a lot from the activities in the Traditional Art Corner. 64 We also learn to be patient and careful, because making a good traditional craft work needs attention to every small detail. More importantly, we start to love our traditional culture more and want to be the inheritors of it. 65 We will hold a craft fair in the corner next month, and we plan to invite students from other schools to visit and exchange ideas with us.
