Speaking Clearly Worksheet for Kids
Communication tip (Main point first): Helps you speak clearly: a steady pace, loud enough to hear, one point at a time, simple words, facing the listener, pausing between ideas, main point first. Makes speech unclear: mumbling, speaking too fast, whispering to a group, lots of “umm… like…”, talking while eating, jumping between topics. A clear request gives exact details: “Mum, I need ₹50 for the class trip by Friday.” — what, how much and by when.
