Answer to Question 1

ANSWER:
Teachers set the tone of the classroom by establishing the emotional framework. This is done with body movements, tone of voice, facial expressions or lack of them, and nonverbal as well as verbal gestures.

Acting punitively and harshly sets a tone that can affect children in a negative way. A positive tone is created when teachers communicate their acceptance and warmth, creating a climate where children feel safe, secure, and guided.
