A good classroom timer does one thing a wall clock cannot: it makes time visible. This free countdown timer for the classroom puts a big, friendly cartoon bomb on the smartboard, with digits readable from the back row and a fuse that shows exactly how much time is left, no time-telling skills required.

It covers the everyday routines: a cleanup race before pack-up, a two-minute transition between activities, per-question quiz countdowns, center rotations, and timed writing sprints. Pick a length below, or use the presets from 30 seconds to an hour.

Everything is classroom-friendly by design. Sound is off by default, so the timer never interrupts a lesson unless you want it to. A reduced-motion mode calms the animation for sensitive rooms. There is no sign-up, nothing to install, and it works on any smartboard, projector, laptop, or tablet.
