The Learning Resources Time Tracker transforms classroom management with its innovative visual timer system. Using intuitive colored lights (green, yellow, and red) and optional sound cues, it helps keep students on track without constant verbal reminders, creating a more independent learning environment. The wide 180-degree viewing angle and large, easy-to-read LCD display ensure all students can see remaining time from anywhere in the classroom, eliminating confusion and reducing interruptions. The color progression system is particularly effective because even young children understand that green means plenty of time, yellow signals time is running low, and red indicates time's almost up. Teachers can quickly customize durations for each colored section with simple controls, adapting the timer for various classroom activities from quick transitions to longer work periods. Beyond basic timing, the digital clock display helps students learn to read numbers and understand the concept of elapsed time, developing crucial time management skills that transfer to all aspects of learning. This versatile classroom tool excels at timing tests, reading sessions, center rotations, cleanup time, presentations, and creating structured daily routines. The visual warning system with customizable sound effects helps prepare students for activity changes, significantly decreasing resistance and meltdowns during transitions. Its durable construction stands up to daily classroom use while remaining lightweight enough to move between learning stations as needed. The Time Tracker operates with four AAA batteries (not included) for portable use or with the Learning Resources AC adapter (sold separately) for stationary placement.
