These tools are made for the classroom board. The classroom timer has quick presets, a ring, a bar or plain digits, and a full-screen mode. It plays a gentle chime at the end.

The noise meter shows how loud the room is. It only measures the level on this device… nothing is recorded, and nothing is sent anywhere.

Or put it all together on the Class Screen: a timer, a name picker, a noise meter, groups, a clock and your instructions, all on one screen. Press Full screen, and you're ready to teach. When the class needs a pause, the brain breaks generator picks a quick activity for you.

Try the Class Screen now at lessonplanner.info. It's free, and you don't need an account.
