The Free Classroom Clock

Have you ever wanted a real classroom clock? No, not the kind you hang on the wall that runs on batteries.  I mean a clock designed specifically for classroom use. 

Many years ago, after my students and I both kept losing track of time regularly, I decided to do something about it.  I wrote my own clock program.  It still does exactly what it was designed to do back in 1990 which is to keep track of how much time is left in class and remind me that the bell will be ringing soon. 

When other teachers saw The Clock in my lab, they asked where I got it and they just had to have one of their own.  The next thing I knew, teachers at other schools around my district were asking for it. 

Over the years, the power of The Clock has grown from suggestions by other teachers.  All it takes is an old Windows PC computer. The computer doesn’t even need internet.  It can be used as a basic clock or you can choose from any or all of it’s many additional features.
