There are numerous benefits to using visual timers for students with special needs. Transitions are difficult for students on the Autism Spectrum (in addition to numerous other learning differences). The stress of transitioning between activities can be eased with the use of an appropriate timer. Timers also provide excellent support for students who require support remaining on task. The TimeTracker Timer changes colors as it counts down time. This is an excellent way to let students know what they should be doing at various times during a particular routine. For example (during center play time), if the light is green, it's play time. When the light turns yellow, you will begin cleaning up. You should be finished cleaning up by the time the light turns red. Timers are a necessity when time out is required for students. We are a PBIS school and focus strongly on positive reinforcement; however, in a class of Pre-K students including special education students time out is required on occasion. When time out is utilized, we are sure the students is aware of the amount of time they will be required to sit out. We are currently using our smartboard, cell phones, or classroom iPads for timers. Visual timers would help tremendously in this area.
