Description
Hands down, the biggest, most powerful timer for teachers available! The MegaTimer™ measures in at a super-sized 6.5 by 9.5 inches. The jumbo LCD display with a brilliant blue backlight is so big and bright, you can read the display from the back seat of your classroom. MegaTimer includes all the standard timer features you would expect, plus many, many more.
Push the Student Selector button to randomly pick any student to share. Push the Team Selector button to randomly pick any team in the class to present. Use the Countdown timer to display how much time remains for students to complete their projects. Use the Stopwatch timer to challenge the class how long it takes to clean up. Need dice, a spinner, or random numbers for math problems? Random mode will generate random numbers for you. Set an Alarm to remind you and the class it's break time. Students seem a little sluggish? Press the Temperature button to check if the temperature is optimal for learning. And when you're not using the timer, display the Time and Date.
Carry it around, hang it on the wall, or use the stand to place it on your desk. This is the timer you don't want to be without. Nowhere else will you find so many teaching tools packed into one digital timer. It's big. It's powerful. It's the MegaTimer! Requires 6 AA batteries or a power adaptor(both sold separately).

Customer Reviews/Tips
The timer has a weird built in function, that you can't change, which gives a beeping sound when there is 20% of the time left. Why? My students always get confused with it because it isn't a consistent "30 seconds left", they must do a quick visual check (or math calculation) to figure out how much time is left.
Sure you can switch off the sound entirely, but that defeats the purpose.
EAI's response: Thanks for your review. One of MegaTimer's features is when 80% of the time you've set in Countdown Mode has elapsed, the timer beeps twice, to alert students that time is almost up, much like when a teacher says "You have 5 minutes left." The time remaining is clearly displayed in the large window. When the countdown hits 00:00, MegaTimer continuously beeps until you turn it off, signaling time is up.
