We just had a Yreka moment!! J2 really resents schoolwork intruding in his playtime, legotime, whatever. So, I set the timer for 30 mins and we worked hard….then he got a 5-10 min break. He loved beating the timer on his geography worksheet – he finished 2 sec before the timer went off.
So, just as I do tasks I’d rather not to a timer (it’s a wonder how much you can clean in 15 mins!) – we are finding it helps with our seatwork time too! Hope this helps someone else!
