It has a variety of settings that be changed based on noise sensitivity, a variety of different bouncy visuals that can be chosen, and a variety of settings if you choose to have a sound play when it is too loud. This helps maintain volume control in your classroom and gives students a fun visual to see to help them maintain their inside voices.<\/p>\n<p>This tool should be used when assigning students to be working in pairs, groups, or even individually on class assignments. You can set the range of volume that you don\u2019t want your students getting louder than based on the activity\/lesson being done which is very helpful. This should be displayed on the screen where students can see when they are being too noisy and they need to take their voice levels back down. This hold accountability for the students to be aware of their volume control and helps them from being told over and over again that it is too loud and they need to quiet down. When students are being too loud, the noise meter will recognize it and the bouncy balls will stat to get really chaotic and a \u201ctoo noisy\u201d message will pop up on the screen. This gives students the chance to self-correct their behavior as well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" src=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-300x206.jpeg\" class=\"size-medium alignright wp-image-1592\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-300x206.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-1024x703.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-768x527.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-1536x1054.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/inside.ewu.edu\/managementtoolbox\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/204\/2023\/06\/IMG_1117-2048x1405.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>This relates to the Preventative and Corrective phase because it can prevent from students getting too noise and distracting other students, but also corrects students volume control by showing a reminder to students for them to fix it. For example, if you notice that your students are being way too loud, you can correct their behavior by putting this noise meter up on the screen and students will now be aware of their volume. This fits best within the Collaborative phase because it is both teacher implemented and student choice related. The students get to be held responsible for their volume control but the teacher gets to decide what is too loud and when to put up the noice meter to manage the volume.<\/p>\n<p>More Information &#8211;<br \/>\nTool Source: TeachThought.com<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/bouncyballs.org\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This tool is a noise meter resource you can access online.
