Time to Learn with Pallet Clocks!

Help me give my students the materials to construct a clock which will work on their ability to follow multistep directions and help with time management.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Deyo's classroom raised $630

This project is fully funded

My Students

A NYSAA classroom is a diverse group of students with mixed abilities and personal goals. My students are working on employability skills, resumes, as well as, basic reading, writing and math. The group enjoys hands on learning and benefits from real world experiences. Our classroom runs like a family, learning daily living skills and how to treat others. We work on advocating for ourselves within our small community and are included within the larger school in a variety of ways.

My Project

The materials for the pallet clock will give my students the ability to construct a clock from start to finish. They will pick a unique design from online sources. Next, they will deconstruct pallets and prepare the wood for assembly by removing nails, sanding it, and cutting it to specific measurements. After the wood is prepared, they will construct the clock, complete the design and assemble the mechanism to run the clock.

This multistep project builds employability and advocating skills that will crossover to real life situations.

The finished project will also be used at home to help with time management, from being on time for work to assist with computation of wages. Some of the clocks will be auctioned off for a community charity that also employs our students to build employability skills.
