Counting Up Digital Timers for the Classroom

There may be instances where you will need a digital timer that counts up. For example, you may want students to write down how long a task has taken them to complete. You can pop on this one-hour counting-up digital timer and have students write down the time on the video when they complete their task.

When teaching students how to manage their time, a counting-up timer is sometimes easier to use. For example, you may want students to focus on planning for their writing in the first 10 minutes and then move onto the writing component. A counting up timer is much more effective.

We also have a 10 -minute counting up digital timer that would work well in this situation as well.
