Blurting out is a natural and problematic part of teaching and learning.

With this resource, you can explicitly teach your classroom community expectations and skills for keeping voices off, raising hands, and waiting one's turn to speak.

When children understand the reasons why we want one speaker at a time, they will practice the procedure and master the routine.

This resource includes voice off/hand up/wait until procedure/routine mini lesson slides, a 5 voice levels poster, projectable and printable signs and tokens, and a self-reporting scorecard.
