How loud is too loud in the classroom? Good question. How do you measure it? It is simple. Grab your phone, tablets, or computer and install a noise meter app. Then, set guidelines with your students for what noise level is appropriate for different activities in the classroom. For example, you should expect some noise during group work but there should be no noise during testing, right? Find these apps at Amazon

Here is a little free noise meter app for your iPhone that you may want to check out. It's called Noise Down. We tested out the free version and it worked for us. You can also set an alarm to go for a certain decibel level.
If that alarm goes off, then you know when your students are too loud. Of, did I mention this works for the kids at home too?
Does your website have a contact page? I’m having a tough time locating it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail. I’ve got some creative ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great website and I look forward to seeing it grow over time. Flow Meter LC
