Ever feel like five minutes in the classroom is somehow longer than five minutes in real life? This Ephgraves 5 Minute Timer is here to prove that time is, in fact, real! This high quality, robust timer offers a clear, visual representation of duration that is far more effective than abstract clock faces for younger children. It is absolutely brilliant for managing those sometimes tricky transitions, supporting children's understanding of boundaries, and ensuring fair turn taking during popular activities. By making time visible, you empower children to self regulate, enhancing their Personal, Social and Emotional Development. It is also a concrete resource for teaching the mathematical concepts of measurement of time and duration. Say goodbye to the 'just a minute' negotiation dance!
