2 . One of the most important keys is making sure that kids are getting the message you're trying to send. When you communicate with kids, sometimes the way instructions (指令) are given can be just as important as what you're trying to communicate.     1    

Be direct. Make statements rather than asking questions. “Please turn right,” as opposed to “Are you ready to get out your homework?”

    2     Give instructions when you are near the child, rather than calling out from across the room.

Use clear and specific commands (命令). Instead of “Go ahead,” say, “Please turn right at the second crossing. ”

Give instructions one at a time.     3     “Please put on your coat, get your lunch off the kitchen counter, and meet me in the front door.”

Keep explanations easy. Giving a rationale (根本原因) can increase the likelihood children will listen to a command. For example, “Go get your coat on because it's raining.    4    ” Instead, try: “It’s raining and I don’t want you to catch a cold. Go get your coat on.

Give kids time to process. After you give an instruction, wait a few seconds, without repeating what you said. They don't need to listen.     5     Watching and waiting also helps keep adults from doing what we’ve requested of our kids for them.

A．Be close.

B．Don't give them one by one.

C．I don't want you to catch a cold.

D．Do shout out as loudly as possible.

E．Try to avoid giving instructions all together.

F．This is because the instructions will be repeated.

G．Here are the practical ways to present information to the kids

10 . Marty was new at school. On his first day, he showed magic to his schoolmates. He made a toothpick (牙签) disappear and appear within seconds. Everyone wondered how he did it.

“How did you do that?” I asked. “Sorry, but that’s the first law of magic. A magician never lets out his secrets.” Marty smiled. I thought he was tricking everyone. I would make his secrets known to all.

The next day, Marty gave his second magic show. He said he could make things float (飘起). He had a ring in one hand and a pencil in the other. That’s when I saw it: a thin line tied around the end of the pencil and attracted to a button on Marty’s shirt! Sure enough, he made the ring “float” by sliding (滑动) it over the pencil and hanging it from the line. No one else noticed, but I found the secret. I got close to him and said, “I know how you did it.” He looked nervous and asked me, “Are you going to tell others?” I thought for a moment. If I told, I’d finally be able to prove Marty’s magic was fake (假的). Then Marty might lose his new friends. So I told him that I would say nothing about it. And then I walked away.

“Wait!” Marty jumped in front of me. “You’ve got a pretty good eye for magic. If you’re interested, I have an idea,” Marty suggested. And I accepted his idea. That’s how the Magic Marty and Mysterious Matt Lunch Show began. We’ve been a magic team for three months now. It turns out that instead of a fake magician, Marty is a real friend.
