Your support means so much to us and will have a lasting, positive impact on the children we serve.\r\n\r\nThe addition of visual timers to our classroom is already proving to be a transformative tool in our students' daily routines. As you may know, young children, especially those with special needs, can struggle with the passage of time and transitioning from one activity to the next. Visual timers help to make abstract concepts like time more concrete and understandable for our students, creating a sense of structure and predictability in their day.\r\n\r\nWith the use of these timers, our students can now better anticipate when activities will begin or end, which helps reduce anxiety and fosters a more comfortable learning environment. This simple yet powerful tool allows them to feel more in control of their day, empowering them to stay engaged and focused on the tasks at hand.\r\n\r\nThe benefits are already evident in our classroom. Students are more confident in their ability to transition smoothly from one activity to another, and there has been a noticeable reduction in the frustration that often accompanies abrupt changes in their routine. Teachers, too, are finding that the timers serve as a valuable resource to manage transitions efficiently and with less verbal prompting, creating a calmer atmosphere for all.","fullyFundedDate":1733352303202,"projectUrl":"project/special-education-preschool-timers/8818160/","projectTitle":"Special Education Preschool Timers","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Pittenger","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/9776726"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_82226","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":287,"numTeachers":33,"percentFrplEligible":11,"percentAsian":0,"percentBlack":1,"percentWhite":90,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":7,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"Pre-K - 6","studentTeacherRatio":"8.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":false,"titleOne":false,"metroType":"RURAL","ncesMetroType":"RURAL_DISTANT"},"inStateSupporters":73.3,"schoolId":82226,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Stillwater Township Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Stillwater Township Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/new-jersey/stillwater-township-school-district/stillwater-twp-elementary-school/82226"}
