This not only makes learning more engaging for them but also more effective. The timer you helped provide allows me to manage activities more efficiently, helping students stay on track and make the most of their learning time. And with the magnets, it's now so much easier to place labels and materials on the board, making transitions smoother and lessons more dynamic.\r\n\r\nYour contribution has truly supported both my teaching and my students' learning.
