This digitized hourglass can be used to time anything for up to 60 minutes. It’s like having a nice looking visual indicator of how much time is left on your task.

    Best Sand Timer is exactly what it is. It is a Digital Sand timer that is very appealing to the eyes. I used it while I was cooking rice and believe me it has many uses. In the classroom, you can use it to have reading time or even to pace learners in groups as well as the lesson itself.

  2. Beth Alsen - Mesa Community College says:

    Pace the lesson with a digital sand timer using this app. It has a clear and brightly colored visual with the sand cascading down the hour glass to indicate that time is running out. Along with varied colored choices, this app also has quite a few different sound effects for when time is up. However, it does not have any pre-waring sounds. And, sometimes when learners are so engaged in their group collaborations, it is nice to hear a warning signal indicating when to wrap up! So, if you just want a timer..and an alarm then, this is app is right price…it’s FREE!
