Absolutely using this one in whatever classroom I find myself in next school year.

NOISE…removing one letter at a time when our voice level gets too loud. When NO is left, there is NO more talking!

Love this! A lot more clearer than just putting up strikes on the board or letting the noise escalate to a point where you just cut off talking. It also gives the kids a chance to regain control of their noise before it gets to that point. 

If I taught in the same room for all my classes, I’d implement this right away.
