Classroom Countdown
A big, bright countdown for the classroom board: days, hours, minutes and seconds until summer break, winter break, a field trip or a test. Switch to school days only to count just Monday to Friday.
The Day of School counter shows what day of the school year it is and how many days are left until the 100th day. Your countdowns are saved on this device.
How to use it in class
- Add a countdown. Type a name, pick the date and time, and tap Add. Add as many as you like and tap one to show it.
- School days only. Tick the box to count only weekdays instead of the full days, hours and minutes.
- Day of school. Switch to Day of School, enter your first day and any days off, and it counts the school days so far.
- Put it on the board. Use fullscreen for a display everyone can read from across the room.
