Children learn through relationships
-
Spend the time to get to know and understand your children. The more you know about them and their uniqueness, the easier it will be to connect and relate to them.
-
Id say listen to build a connection. Return and serve. If a child is showing interest meet that interest back curiosity is a Childs way of saying they want to know more.

Kids has spidey senses and they know when you are not being welcoming. Be genuine when being around the kids. Verbal Communication is big but try not to use too big of words just so they feel that they can understand you. Let them know they can trust you and come to you when they have an issue or even when they dont have an issue.

I would tell them that building connections with kids in your classroom is critical for creating a positive and nurturing learning environment. I would recommend that they are warm and approachable and show genuine interest in their students. I’d also remind them about the importance of establishing trust and respect with their students and families and helping to build positive teacher-child relationships.

I would say to be positive and patient so you don’t blow up in their faces, interact with them often, and show a genuine interest in what they are doing.
-
Active listening, expressing empathy, getting down to their level, regularly engaging with them, and playing with them. It is important to be an active listener and be caring and loving toward each and every child.
