Perfil del aprendiz, Comunicador Los estudiantes que son comunicadores son capaces de pensar y comunicarse en más de un idioma. Pueden expresar sus ideas hablando, dibujando y escribiendo. También pueden comunicarse mediante el lenguaje y los símbolos matemáticos. ¿Cómo pueden los padres ayu-dar a desarrollar en el hogar la comunicación en los estudiantes? Anime a su hijo a mantenerse en contacto con familiares y amigos que viven en otros países, escribiendo cartas, usando el teléfono o el envío de correo electrónico. Cuando se trabaja en las tareas matemáti-cas, anime a su hijo a explicar su / su respuesta a usted en forma oral o mediante un dibujo. Pídale a su hijo que piense y haga preguntas y anímele a hablar con usted. Por ejemplo: · ¿Qué haría usted si estuviera asustado de alguien en la escuela? · ¿Hay algo que no se puede comprar con el dinero? · En caso de obtener un permiso? ¿Por qué o por qué no? Trabaje con su hijo para mejorar su / sus habilidades de escuchar. Ser un buen oyente es una parte importante de la comunicación con los demás.
