Voice Level Volume Visual Chart Editable

About this resource

EVERYTHING INSIDE — 23 pages, 246 type-in fields

• 5 voice-level cue cards (Silent, Whisper, Talking, Louder, Loudest), quietest to loudest, each with its own concrete anchor picture
• A Voice Level Reference Chart: all five levels taught together on one poster, numbered 1–5, with a one-line "used for" caption under each
• A Check-In Board that prints the whole five-level scale once, with a token spot under every level so a student points to, or places a token, a coin or a paperclip on, the level that matches their voice right now, plus a quick check-in table to log levels before the full log
• Two desk-size copies of the check-in board on one sheet, for a folder, a small group, or a second desk
• Every reference chart and level card printed twice — a full-color set and a black-and-white ink-saver set
• A detail table naming, in separate columns, what each card's picture shows and what the level is used for
• 10 blank voice-level cards with a type-in line, to build a spare, a replacement, or a card for one specific room and its expected level
• A how-to page: before the first check-in, the three moves every check-in, how many check-ins to run, when a setting's expected level isn't obvious, writing down what changes
• A Voice Level Practice Log (16 rows: one row per check-in, an Expected level column your team fills in, an Actual level column for what was logged, and a Match column)
• A weekly roll-up (8 weeks) with a percent-matched graph
• A filled example — an invented student, one school day on the log and three weeks on the roll-up, every number re-counted from its own row
• A family page with a small take-home level chart and a week of home check-in tracking
• A hand-off page so a paraprofessional or a general education teacher runs the same board the same way, with the same expected levels written in
• A phrase bank: 22 lines in 6 groups (spoken words for each check-in, written starters for the log, the roll-up and the note home)
• A storage and binder label sheet: 11 labels and a spine strip
• Start Here, a contents page with page thumbnails, and a "what's next" back page

Most voice-level charts on this shelf are a single static poster with no board and no data behind it. This one matches the five-level scale to a check-in board that prints the whole scale at once — point to it or mark it with a token — with a practice log and a weekly roll-up behind it, so a check-in turns into a line on a page a case manager can bring to a meeting.

The Five Voice Levels And Their Anchor Pictures

• Silent (Level 1) — a speaker with a line through it, used when no talking is expected at all
• Whisper (Level 2) — a face with a finger over closed lips, used for a voice only the person right next to you can hear
• Talking (Level 3) — a talking head with sound lines, used for a partner or a small group
• Louder (Level 4) — an open mouth, used for reading aloud or talking to the whole room
• Loudest (Level 5) — a megaphone, used outside, or for an emergency

Every picture is a plain, concrete object — a speaker, a face, a head, a mouth, a megaphone — and was rendered and read at print size in color AND in the black-and-white set before it went on a card, side by side with the other four, to confirm none of the five is confused with another. Cards are 2 inches square.

What This Is, And What It Is Not

It is a fillable PDF: type into the check-in board, the practice log, the roll-up, the family page, the hand-off page and the blank cards, or print and use a pen. The chart and card pages print on cardstock or plain paper; the cards cut along dashed lines. It works offline with no account or subscription. It is NOT an editable online slideshow or word-processor document.

It is a way to teach five voice-volume levels in pictures, check in against a setting's own expected level, and keep a record of what was logged. It is not a behavior plan, a clinical finding, or a program of any kind, and it promises no outcome. It carries no prompt hierarchy, fading schedule or mastery rule. Which level is expected in which setting is your team's own plan — this file supplies the chart, the check-in board, and a place to record whether the level logged matched what was expected, nothing about what to expect or when. The goal line and the criterion field on the roll-up, and the expected-level columns and fields throughout, are blanks for your district's own wording and your team's own answer.

Who This Is For

Special education teachers, paraprofessionals and classroom teachers working on voice-volume self-regulation, case managers who need that practice to show up as data, and the families who get the home page sent home.
