Calendar

Today's date, front and centre — or the whole month.

A calendar that lives on the board: today's date large for morning meeting, or a month view for seeing what's coming. The daily 'what day is it?' ritual, sorted.

How it works

Three steps, zero setup

No setup screen, no import wizard — Calendar lives on the same board as everything else and it's running before the class has sat down.

1

Open the dock and tap Calendar

It lands on your board already showing the real date.

2

Choose the view

Daily shows today big and proud; monthly lays out the weeks ahead. Start the week on Sunday or Monday — your call.

Let it run

It keeps itself current. Tomorrow it says tomorrow.

Classroom ideas

Try it tomorrow

Three ways teachers actually run calendar — steal one for tomorrow morning.

Yesterday, today, tomorrow

Daily view plus three questions for early years: what day was it, what day is it, what day will it be? Tense practice hiding in the register routine.

Event radar

Month view during planning chats with the class: 'nine school days before the trip — where does the project fit?' Real project management, junior edition.

Calendar detective

Weekly puzzlers off the month view: how many Tuesdays this month? What date is the third Friday? Faster than a worksheet, stickier too.

I keep one board for the whole week — timetable, name wheel, timer — and just swap the background when the room needs a lift.

Same dock, one tap away

Pairs well with

Every tool lives on the same board — these turn calendar into a whole routine.

Countdown

The calendar shows when; the countdown makes it a big deal.

Timetable

Month for the horizon, timetable for today.

Weather

Today's date, then today's sky — morning meeting's opening act.

On This Day

Today's date, then what happened on it.

…and the rest of the dock is one tap away:

FAQ

Good to know

Does it update automatically?

Yes — it always shows the real date. No flipping paper pages.

Daily or monthly view?

Both. Daily for the morning ritual, monthly when the class needs to see the shape of the weeks ahead.

Can the week start on Monday?

Yes — Sunday or Monday, whichever matches your planner.

Do I need an account to try it?

No — no login, no install. Your board saves on this device; an account is only needed to keep boards across devices.
