Open the dock and tap Calendar
It lands on your board already showing the real date.
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.
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.
It lands on your board already showing the real date.
Daily shows today big and proud; monthly lays out the weeks ahead. Start the week on Sunday or Monday — your call.
It keeps itself current. Tomorrow it says tomorrow.
Three ways teachers actually run calendar — steal one for tomorrow morning.
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.
Month view during planning chats with the class: 'nine school days before the trip — where does the project fit?' Real project management, junior edition.
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.
Every tool lives on the same board — these turn calendar into a whole routine.
…and the rest of the dock is one tap away:
Yes — it always shows the real date. No flipping paper pages.
Both. Daily for the morning ritual, monthly when the class needs to see the shape of the weeks ahead.
Yes — Sunday or Monday, whichever matches your planner.
No — no login, no install. Your board saves on this device; an account is only needed to keep boards across devices.
Open a board, tap the dock, and it's there. That's the whole setup.
