The language we use creates reality. We all know people who seem to be able to work “magic” with young
children, motivating, inspiring, & building relationships with them without raising their voices, bossing them
around, scolding, or threatening. Actually, there is nothing magical about it. Teacher Tom shares how the
specific words we use shape reality for our students for both good and bad. Participants will learn about the
importance of being clear & precise; honoring children without commanding or bossing them; using words
to create a world of facts and intrinsic momotivation; creating space in which children must do their own
thinking.
