Visual classroom timer with colour‑coded tasks and a moving traveler to teach and support time management.
Help students master time management with a simple, visual approach.
DPS Visual Timer, turns any lesson or activity into a clear, colour‑coded timeline. Students see exactly how much time remains for each task and watch a friendly “traveler” move along the progress bar.
Two powerful modes:
• Allocate Total Time – Set the total available time, then divide it among activities. Perfect for teaching planning skills.
• Set Individual Times – Define custom durations for each task. Ideal for fixed schedules like centres or rotations.
Key Features
Visual Progress Bar – Each category gets its own colour. Students instantly grasp how time is distributed.
Traveler Indicator – A fun icon (star, rocket, or custom image) slides along the bar as time passes.
Fullscreen Mode – Distraction‑free projection for the whole class. The timer takes over the entire screen.
Save & Load Routines – Teachers can store favourite setups (e.g., “Morning Meeting”, “Writing Workshop”) and reuse them with one tap.
Dual Countdown – Shows both current task time and total remaining time simultaneously.
Why teachers love it
• Helps students with ADHD and executive function challenges.
• Encourages reflection: “Did we allocate enough time for planning?”
• Simple enough for young learners, yet flexible for any grade.
