<\/p>\nShow and tell, although it is quite fun and interesting for kids, is actually a crafty teaching method too. It is very useful at teaching small children about public speaking, and can help them overcome their fears about it as they move on through life.<\/p>\n
It is also a great ice breaker, and allows the children – and their teacher – a little more insight into the lives and minds of those children when they\u2019re away from the classroom.<\/p>\n
Although Show And Tell originated in North America, it is spreading over the globe as people start to see its effectiveness and great uses at helping children overcome fears, open up about themselves, and speak in front of an audience.<\/p>\n

Although it may seem a strange concept, getting shy children to stand up and talk in front of a room is a great way to inspire confidence<\/a>. Once they realise that nothing awful is going to happen to them if they do, they will open up and become more sure of themselves.<\/p>\n And for the naturally more outgoing ones, they will love nothing better than getting up and proudly telling their peers about something that excites them!<\/p>\n Show and tell can also encourage friendships to grow and deepen; by encouraging children to talk about things that they are passionate about that they would not have otherwise talked about can help them to meet new friends and discover shared interests.<\/p>\n There are a great many advantages to Show And Tell – but what do you do if your child has no idea what they can bring in to class to talk about? Luckily, we\u2019re on hand to help out!<\/p>\n The best items to bring to show and tell are those that look interesting<\/strong>, as well as having an interesting story behind them as well.<\/p>\n If your child is one of those painfully shy ones who find it very hard to speak in front of people, try to get them out of their shell a little by offering a topic they are passionate about. <\/strong><\/p>\n If you had to go through show and tell as a kid, try to remember that going through it again as a parent is probably far more stressful for you than it is for your child, and try not to project onto them.<\/strong><\/p>\n They may be nervous, but they don\u2019t have the previous memories that you have to contend with as well.<\/p>\n Show and Tell can be a scary experience for some children, but with a little help and coaching it can become a fun, opening and widening experience.<\/p>\n Show and Tell can help children to find their voice, open up, learn to speak in front of others, and encourage them to make friends through their own experiences.<\/p>\n The more outgoing little ones will love the experience of standing up in front of the class, and having a few more ideas will help them on their way to enjoying a full and easy experience of Show and Tell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Show and tell, although it is quite fun and interesting for kids, is actually a crafty teaching method too.
