The deepest need of the human heart is to be understood. This week the in Life Skills Sophomores are learning the importance of genuine listening. Listening with your ears is not enough, because only 7 percent of communication is contained in the words we use. We should be listening with our eyes, our hearts, and our ears. In this exercise the students are practicing mirroring one another’s conversations.
