Remember when movies reels started with a 10, 9, 8�countdown? The countdown got our attention and made us excited about the upcoming feature.
Countdown clocks also can be used to great advantage in the classroom. Often, when students are given a certain amount of time to complete a task, they have difficulty staying focused and using their time wisely. Flicking the lights or calling out reminders might not be incentive enough.
A countdown clock gets students' attention and motivates them to stay on task.
You can create your own countdown clock in just three easy steps.
Next: Create the slides.
