The
new Mark-My-Time digital bookmark from Mark-My-Time
(www.mark-my-time.com) is a fun and easy way to monitor
students’ reading times while motivating them to read. The slim,
durable digital bookmark is made from a polyethylene plastic, comes
in three bright colors (lime, plum, and turquoise), and features a
digital clock at the top that’s powered by a replaceable watch battery.
Schools and parents can use the digital bookmark either as a countdown
timer that provides an alarm when a child has completed his
required reading time, or as a cumulative
timer that tracks total time spent
reading throughout the day. The digital
bookmark can also be used for timing
other activities such as meetings, study
and practice sessions, and interval
training when exercising. In addition,
the company offers three fundraising
programs that provide revenue opportunities
for schools and nonprofit organizations. Price: $8.95.
