As a teacher you can set KazuTime up on a SMART Board in your classroom to let students know how long they have to complete their project. This allows for a larger display of the app that can be seen anywhere in the classroom. Students can visually see how much time is remaining and can race against their fur friends to complete their project. Being able to see the amount of time remaining can help teach students basic time management skills that can be enhanced each time the app is used. Sometimes students may struggle to read a clock and calculate how much time they have left to complete a task. Having KazuTime visually available can help relieve some of the anxieties students may have. It can even help to motivate those students that often procrastinate during seat work to complete the task more efficiently!

Do always feel like the end of the school day is a constant race against time? Using KazuTime can help with this! Set KazuTime up on the SMART Board in your classroom to let your students know how much time they have to get ready for home time. Students will be motivated to race against their fur friends, which results in students being ready before the bell! Having KazuTime available to students helps them to understand and see how much time is left, while simultaneously providing positive reinforcement to the students for their behavior (i.e., the dogs, music, stars obtained if task is completed early, etc.). Teachers can also utilize external rewards (e.g., stickers) to further reinforce their students when they get ready for home before the time has elapsed. Pairing KazuTime with positive reinforcement can help to increase the likelihood that the students will demonstrate the behavior again in the future!

Taking care of a class pet can be a fun task for students, but can also take up important teaching time. Using KazuTime on an IPad or Tablet can help students care for the class pet efficiently. The student(s) can visually see how much time is remaining and can race against time to complete the task(s).

Use KazuTime on a class IPad or Tablet to set a timer (e.g., 2 minutes) before a student leaves the classroom to use the washroom. This can motivate the student to quickly use the washroom and get back to class before the timer is complete. Teachers can also pair KazuTime with positive reinforcement (e.g., team points, sticker, etc.) when a student returns to class before the timer is done. This can result in an increase in students’ efficiency when using the washroom throughout the day, thereby saving students from missing valuable teaching time!

Use KazuTime during music to help students understand and visually identify how much time is remaining to play their instrument. KazuTime can be used on a SMART Board that can be seen by all of the students in the class. Resulting in fewer interruptions from the teacher to remind students how much time is remaining. KazuTime may also be used by an Educational Assistant when working with a student who is hypersensitive to loud noise (e.g., a student with Autism Spectrum Disorder who wears noise cancelling headphones in loud areas). Using KazuTime on an iPad or Tablet can help relieve the student’s anxieties about the loud environment by allowing him or her to visually see the amount of time remaining. As a result, KazuTime can help to make it easier for the student to be fully integrated and enjoying the same activity with their peers!

Use KazuTime to get your students motivated and engaged during the warm up for gym! Stretching and warm up activities are important components to a gym class that are often missed due to time constraints. Using KazuTime can ensure every gym time has a consistent warm up and allows students to see how much time is remaining. Teachers can use KazuTime each gym class and can assign a different student to run the warm up each time. This helps to ensure consistency and can get students motivated to keep moving for the entire time!

KazuTime can help keep show and tell on schedule and fun! Use KazuTime on an iPad or Tablet to keep track of the time! This allows for the teacher to focus on the students’ presentations and enjoy. Also, students will be motivated to fill the allotted time since they will be able to visually see how much time they have remaining.

Students will be able to see how much time is remaining for each subject and this will motivate them to work efficiently. KazuTime can also help ease any anxiety students’ may have when transitioning from one subject to the next.

Students always look forward to recess! Use KazuTime to keep students aware of how much time is remaining. KazuTime can help to prevent students’ from refusing to come inside when the bell rings because they are upset recess is over. Being able to see how much recess time is remaining using KazuTime will help ease the transition back inside the school.
