Tone of Voice Lesson for Kids: It’s Not WHAT You Say, It’s HOW Your Say It

How you say something is just as important as what you say. When you are speaking to someone, the tone of your voice helps the listener understand your message. Did you know that you can say the exact same words with different tones and communicate different messages? Today we are talking about being respectful with our voice and our words.

This lesson aligns with the following Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) competencies:

Self-Awareness: The lesson helps students understand how their tone of voice and choice of words can affect their interactions with others.

Self-Management: The lesson teaches students how to control their tone of voice and choose their words more carefully to communicate respectfully, even in challenging situations.

Social Awareness: The lesson helps students understand the impact their words and tone of voice can have on others and promotes empathy for others' feelings and perspectives.

Responsible Decision Making: The lesson encourages students to make responsible decisions about how they communicate, leading to more positive relationships with others.

Relationship Skills: The lesson provides opportunities for students to practice using respectful language and tone in interactions with others, which can enhance their ability to build and maintain positive relationships.
