Using the timer in class
Use it for writing, group work, reading, quizzes, or breaks. Students can see the instructions and the time left. Add time if the class needs it.
A plan stops at zero until you start the next activity. Choose automatic starts for tasks with fixed times. If the page is hidden at a change, the next activity waits for you.
Keep this page open and your device awake. A sleeping device or a background tab can delay a chime. The time display catches up when you return. Closing or reloading the page stops the timer. Save or download a plan to keep the setup.
