Moments of the day
Test day screens
Test days can be stressful for students and busy for teachers. Clear routines and calm, organized classrooms help everyone do their best. Having everything visible—timers, instructions, reminders—makes a big difference.
Projecting a classroom screen during tests keeps students focused. You can display a visual timer, step-by-step directions, rules, or calming backgrounds. With ready-made templates for every age group, you can quickly set up the right screen before students even walk in.
