Classroom timer

Give the class a clear time limit everyone can see. Pick a preset, start it and put it on the big screen.

On the projector or interactive board

  1. Open this page on the computer connected to the projector.
  2. Pick a preset from 1 to 30 minutes, or tap the time to set your own.
  3. Press F or the full screen button. The controls fade after a few seconds, leaving only the dial.

Ideas for a lesson

  • 5 minutes for a warm-up question as students arrive.
  • 15 minutes for group work, with a chime when time is up.
  • 2 minutes to tidy up before the bell.

Plan the whole lesson

Open the Sequence page and add stages such as Reading 10:00, Discussion 15:00 and Exit ticket 5:00. The timer moves from one stage to the next on its own, or waits for you if you turn off auto-advance.

Questions and answers

Does this change my normal timer?

No. This page keeps its own time, separate from the main Timer.
