⏳ Classroom Timer: Big Countdown for Your Class Screen

How to use it

1. 1. Choose the time

   Press a quick time from 1 to 30 minutes, or type your own minutes and seconds in the two boxes. The big display shows the time you picked.

2. 2. Press Start

   The countdown begins and the bar under the numbers slowly empties. Use Pause if the class is interrupted and Resume to carry on from the same second.

3. 3. Show it to the class

   Press Full screen so the numbers fill a projector or interactive whiteboard. Leave the sound on, or tick the mute box if a beep would disturb a quiet room.

4. 4. Wait for the beep

   When the time runs out you hear three short beeps and see the words "Time is up". Press Reset to go back to the time you chose.

Ideas for class and home

• Timed silent reading

  Set ten minutes, press full screen and let the class read until the beep. The bar shows how much time is left without anyone asking.

• Quick tidy-up

  Give the class two minutes to pack away. A visible countdown turns tidying into a small challenge and cuts down on reminders.

• Group work rounds

  Run five-minute rounds at a station rotation. Press Reset and Start again for each round, and groups learn to wrap up when they hear the beep.

• Homework and study blocks at home

  Set twenty minutes of focus followed by a short break. A child can watch the bar shrink and see that the end is close.
