The topic of a master's thesis is Communication and Body Language in Primary Education. As the title suggests, some basic parts of verbal and nonverbal communication will be analyzed in this thesis, as well as its impact on children's education. On a daily basis, people communicate not only consciously, but also unconsciously. Communication in primary education happens the same way. Communication that is being established in those situations is both verbal and nonverbal, both of which have great importance. It is also important to point out that a man’s relationship with other people is a necessary precondition for a good mental and physical development of an individual. Timely recognition of students’ different nonverbal signals can significantly change the social, emotional and intellectual development of children. The purpose of this thesis is to make primary education teachers aware of the importance of communication and its application in daily life. All important determinants of communication are emphasized, but also the most important components of body language, i.e., nonverbal communication. The teacher is the one who creates a basis for the development of students’ communication skills. Genetics, cognitive abilities, child’s activity affect the development of communication skills, but creating a good stimulating environment in the classroom is another crucial factor. The thesis presents many examples of nonverbal communication being dominant, which proves that this type of communication can sometimes convey more information than verbal communication.
