With these whiteboard timers, I can create a plan with each student at the start of a task, then allow them to be more independent in getting the task done.

With one teacher trying to manage 20-30 students in a room, it is chaos trying to keep track of how long each student should be working on a task or how long their break should be.

In addition to supporting my students in achieving their academic goals, the timers can be used for behavior goals as well. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, I have several students who have a hard time keeping their mask on for the entire period. I would love to use these timers to help students manage their own mask breaks (e.g. wear your mask for 10 minutes, then you can take a break for 3 minutes)!
