Noise-o-Meter Classroom Display

A classroom display to show children visually the appropriate noise level in class.

Why do you need this?
A noise o meter display provides a visual representation of the noise level in the classroom, helping teachers manage and regulate student behavior. By establishing clear expectations for appropriate noise levels, teachers can create a conducive learning environment.

The noise o meter serves as a positive reinforcement tool, as students are encouraged to maintain an appropriate noise level to keep the meter within the desired range. Teachers can praise students for staying within the designated zone, reinforcing positive behavior.

How and when might you use this?
Teachers can refer to this display at different points in the day:
· At the beginning of the day to set expectations
· During transitions between activities as a reminder
· During group or independent work to monitor noise levels and ensure any discussion remains focussed
· During whole class teaching to signal that it is time to listen attentively
