What Is a Classroom Timer?
OK, a timer is ... a timer. We know you know exactly what we're talking about. BUT, when it comes to a tool that's tracking time in the classroom, there are some distinct features that set this type of timer apart.
For starters, classroom timers can be a regular clock with a countdown feature or an old-school sand timer. Then again, it can be a piece of software or video like the timers below that will count down the time as students complete a task or transition between two activities.
Typically, a classroom timer is not necessarily counting up (although it can be!). Most of the time, they're counting down to help keep students on track or help teachers allocate time effectively. With this in mind, they're valuable tools to add to your classroom management toolkit!
