stopwatch instead

I, too, was curious about the Yacker Tracker, and if it was worth the $75. Another teacher here on proteacher told me she uses a stopwatch as a visual instead. I tried it as she said...way cheaper than $75...and it works!!!| My students are scared to death of seeing me with the stopwatch in my hand! I time how long it takes them to be quiet and/or get on task, write it on the board, add it up, and that's the time they give back to me on recess. It has been WONDERFUL!!! I was so worried about this class because they are TALKERS...but not anymore! I've been using the stopwatch for a week and the most | |
they've owed me for recess is 2 minutes!
At my school, there is a 2nd grade teacher who bought a Yacker Tracker this year...she's buying a stopwatch this weekend! Same complaints as above.
