SOLVER

*SOLVER FOR GOOD COMMUNICATION
S Squarely face the child and move to their height level.
O Open posture. Crossed arms or legs puts up a barrier and suggests unwillingness to listen.
L Learn slightly forward. This demonstrates interest and shows you are listening.
V Verbal comments are relevant. They should also support what the child is saying.
E Eye contact should be maintained without overdoing it.
R Relax Be comfortable and show it.

Praying for you that this week you'll be particularly effective with the children you sometimes struggle to engage.

*The SOLVER checklist was sent in by Eddie
from the Australian Sports Commission where it is used in their coaches training program
