1. You can’t use personal electronic devices during reading or individual assignments.

This rule can help students focus on their work and improve their reading and
comprehension skills.
2. You have to keep the classroom clean and orderly. This rule helps ensure a safe and
healthy learning environment, as well as promoting an attitude of respect for the
classroom space.
3. You’ve got to maintain an appropriate level of noise in the classroom. This rule
helps prevent distractions and ensures that all students can hear and understand what
the teacher is saying. It can also help promote a respectful and collaborative
classroom environment.
4. You can implement a "hands and eyes up" policy during questions and answers.
This is important because it helps keep students focused on the lesson and prevents
them from being distracted by activities such as looking out the window or talking
to their classmates.
Dear Mr. El-Sayed,

I am writing to you regarding the problem of noisy neighbors that I am having in my

apartment building. For some time now, my neighbors in the upstairs apartment have been
making a lot of noise at late hours, which is causing me difficulty sleeping and focusing on
my daily activities.

I have tried talking to them on several occasions to ask them to reduce the noise, but they
have shown no interest in doing so. I am considering taking legal action, but before that, I
wanted to know if you had any advice or suggestions on how to effectively address this
problem.

What should I have done differently until now? What would you have told them? What
have I done wrong, and what can I do in the future to solve this problem of noisy
neighbors?

I appreciate your help in advance and look forward to your response.
