  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!)
If want your students to maintain a controlled voice, then it may benefit you to put it in your classroom rules. That way the students are well aware of your expectations inside, and outside, the classroom. The consequences for breaking these rules should be followed to show your students that you mean business.
