1. 3/1/12 12:40 pm Breslin classroom
2. The sounds farthest away from me are someone opening the door to leave the classroom and it shutting, someone throwing something out in the garbage, and someone asking my professor a question.
3. The sounds at a medium range from me are someone rummaging through stuff, like a bag or backpack, and the sounds of people talking to each other before our test.
4. The sounds closest to me are chairs squeaking as people move in and out in them and the sounds of pages turning in notebooks and textbooks.
5. The general sound level is moderate and there is a lot of sound activity coming from throughout the classroom.
6. I would describe this sound environment as “anxious”.
7. Three sounds essential to the sound environment are the sounds of rustling papers, the chairs squeaking and creaking, and people asking each other about things for the test. Together they make up a classroom full of students trying to fit in last minute studying and getting situated before a test.
