The document summarizes and evaluates three classroom transition techniques: 1) Saying "1-2-3" to get students' attention before explaining the next step, 2) Saying "hands up" so students stop what they're doing and listen to instructions, and 3) Using a sand timer to show students how much time is left for an activity. The teacher finds that saying "1-2-3" is simple and clear, while "hands up" ensures students are responsive. A numerical timer is suggested to improve on using a sand timer so students can track time more precisely.

She uses it during the activities. Put sand times Children have specific time to I think this is a good do the activity. She puts the transition, but I think it can be glass timer to show how much improved by using a numeral time they have. timer, because that will get them more familiar to numbers and they will know exactly how much time is left and they wont need to estimate.
