  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!)
One thing that I have seen that I love is a poster of a stoplight hanging at the front of the class. There will be a magnetic arrow on the stoplight that shows the students where their volume should be during class. The volume may vary during different activities during the class. It is up to the teacher to move the arrow and let the students the change in volume.
