  Case: Students always getting loud
In a class I substituted for, (second grade) the class was quiet at first and then the volume would always get ridiculously loud. I would remind them of the volume and it would stop for a minute but it seemed to always get loud again no matter how many times they were reminded. What could be done for this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
There are many solutions to remind your class of volume settings and noise control.

So the first option is volume control callbacks with you and your students.
the second option is to use a volume color-coded chart that shows where the students are and where they should be in terms of volume
third option could be a count the hand noise level system where the students are at a 3 but need to be at a 1.


A video or song may even work, also remind your students that a level 1 is not for 2 minutes. Level one should be for the remainder of the class time.


You need a volume noise level control system put into place first, then you need to use it each day so the students are aware and get used to it, then create the visuals, and then lastly a reward system for completing is each day.
