Classic Timer with Instructions
A clean countdown with optional instructions and checklist - designed to flex for any activity.
What is this?
This is the timer that started it all - now as a simple template in Superboard. Drop in a customizable countdown, add instructions, and guide any block of time from start to finish. The second slide includes a variation that shows off customizable backgrounds, fonts, and checklist options, so you can make it match your day, your mood, or your class energy. Whether you're running a focused work block, a quick group sprint, or a quiet reading window, this slide gives you structure, pace, and flexibility.
How do I use it?
1. Open the slide and set a custom time or use a preset (5–60 mins). 2. Add a task name and optional instructions. 3. (Optional) Use the checklist version to break work into clear steps. 4. Start the timer and let it run while you teach, confer, or support. 5. Customize fonts, colors, or backgrounds to match your classroom vibe.
Other tips?
• Keep instructions short and behavioral (example: “Work silently, stay in seat”). • Try loud chimes for noisy transitions or gentle sounds for reading time. • Use checklist versions when activity requires student pacing or multiple steps. • Save different “themes” for different periods or class moods.
