The 12” Time Timer is the heart of any classroom or boardroom. Students learn more when teachers are able to spend more time teaching instead of refereeing. Meetings stay on track when everyone in the room knows how much time is left. At the front of the room or hanging on a wall, the disappearing red disk on our largest timer is used by teachers and business professionals around the world to:
- Manage activities and reduce stress of transitions
- Ease testing anxiety as students are able to see at a glance how much time is left
- Sharpen concentration when students try to finish “before the red is gone”
- Avoid confrontations over shared resources
- Keep meetings on schedule
- Manage speakers, presentations and breaks at large events
- Coordinate practice time and game breaks
Make time “visible” with the Time Timer. Here’s how: Pull down the red disc, and as time passes, the red disc goes away, indicating the amount of time that has passed and the amount that remains. Has no annoying ticking or dinging; instead, children see time pass. Suitable for timing oral resting postures and oral-motor tasks, and structuring time-on-task.
Sixty-minute maximum timing interval.
“Seeing” time elapse makes Time Timers ideal for:
- Teaching children the concept of elapsed time
- Making homework and practice time more productive
- Reducing conflict in family and household routines
- Managing the stress of transitions by showing “how much longer”
- Empowering teachers to teach instead of constantly monitoring behavior
- Increasing performance on tests and in the workplace
- Keeping meetings on time and moving forward
- Transcending language and culture barriers
