Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Don't you ever feel like you could use more time? I like to maximize the time I have, so every second counts. There is so much to cover each year and timers help all of us manage our time! This is exceptionally important for my students with special needs, as timers play a vital role in our day to day.

Timers are an essential teaching tool in my classroom, as they teach students how to independently manage their own time, when to move on to the next independent work task and when to transition from one station to another.

Right now we only have 3 timers to share between all my students. With your support, my students will have a wide range of timers to choose from!
