This week we will learn about and discuss nonverbal communication and body language. Watch the video Secrets of NonverbBody Language
What did you learn? Research Youtube and share with the class a video that demonstrates the importance of body language or non-verbal communication.

The video starts by presenting a statement that merely 7% of communication between human beings take place through words. This means nonverbal aspects occupy a significantly large portion of our communication. From this video, it became immediately apparent in what forms non-verbal communication can accompany verbal interaction. The two aspects supplement each other and give a message its full meaning. Non-verbal communication can repeat the spoken message, contradict the message that individual is trying to convey, emphasise the message, use it as a substitute or complement words to clearly put across a message.
