And I wanted you to know that they are being used! \r\n\r\nAlso, the timers have made a huge difference in managing behaviors in my classroom! We are able to remind a student visually how much time they have left for something. This comes in handy for doing school work, meal times, recess, and preferred activities.\r\n\r\nThe large crayons have been amazing for my students who are still working on their fine-motor skills, which is most of them.
