Noise Meter
Think back to the first reflection where you identified the reasons for not implementing collaborative conversations with your students. Was noise a concern?
On Day 9, Dr. Fisher will share a strategy for teaching your students appropriate noise levels for different activities in the classroom.
CLASSROOM TASK: CREATE A NOISE METER
Create a Noise Meter to use to teach your students the appropriate levels of noise for different activities. Teach a lesson that includes one of the strategies for collaborative conversations and use the Noise Meter to provide feedback on the noise level in the room.
Watch how your students respond. Reflect on their response to using the Noise Meter during their conversations.
This journal can be used to reflect on what you have learned as you develop strategies for engaging your students in collaborative conversations.

Students need to understand the volume expected in the classroom at a given time. Students have to be taught the variations in noise.
