My Project

My students love these water and sand timers when they need a meta moment in the classroom. Right now we only have 3 in the classroom and the students have to share them. There are times when more than 3 students need or want one and they cannot use it. I am hoping to get enough and a variety of various timers and tools for my student's social-emotional regulation during the class time that they are with me. When students are regulated they are ready to learn what I am teaching that day.
