My Project

My students are amazing. They’re learning and exploring new ways to learn. A timer is a great way to maintain engagement. I am requesting a timer to help my students with activities to use during guided reading and math times. The timer would be beneficial not only academically but would be a good way to keep students on task as well as help when they need a break and or a timer to assist with their transitioning ! With the proper learning materials like a timer, some magnetic tiles and laminating sheets, it will open up a lot of opportunities for students to be able to self regulate and learn.
