Case: Speaking Volume
My school has lots of students that do not understand inside voices. They yell in the hallways. They speak loudly in many classrooms. I, on the other hand, do not think it is acceptable to speak so loudly. How do I teach students to use their inside voices in a school that does not?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
My school adamantly enforces silent hallways. Students must be silent during transitions. In my class, I vary my speaking to display what is and is not appropriate. During group work, I will often say "pause" and assess the volume. Generally the louder they get the more off topic they are. You may reward students for speaking in an appropriate volume in your class. Also, if the same student yells in the hallway, revoke his privilege of being in the hallway with his peers. Hope this helps! |

| Comments: I like the idea of pushing the pause button and assessing the volume. Kids don't realize how loud they get sometimes! |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do this because it would demonstrate that being loud in a hallway can be disruptive to classrooms. |
