1 Minute Timer
Ways to use this 1 minute timer
A one-minute countdown creates a brief shared boundary for one response or transition. Explain the task first so the full minute remains available.
Quick written response
Ask participants to capture one idea, answer one prompt, or write one next step before time expires.
Stretch or breathing reset
Offer a short pause for participants to stand, stretch, or breathe at their own pace before continuing.
Speaker handoff
Give one person time to conclude while the next speaker prepares to begin.
