Classroom Traffic Light

🚦 How many times a day do you say “Be quiet”? Let this tool do it for you. Choose “quiet work,” “whisper with a partner,” or “group talk,” and it fills the screen with big text and a matching background color. Prop a tablet on your desk so children can see it and adjust their voices themselves. 🔔 Next are signals: send attention, tidy-up, line-up, and praise sounds. Each of the four signals has a different tune, so children can recognize them by sound without looking at the screen. Save your voice. 📋 Last is the lesson flow. Lay out the steps from opening to wrap-up and tap “Next” to check off each completed step. Children can see how far along the lesson is, too. This tool was made with code, too · Want to remix it with activity names from our class?
