Any suggestions for tracking the time until summer?

Hey there! I'm a teacher planning end-of-year activities and students keep asking when summer vacation starts. Want to build some excitement by showing them a countdown. Any suggestions for tracking the time until summer?

Teaching through spring definitely needs some motivation boosters! For classroom engagement, I display the Time left until Summer tracker from CalculatorTrue on our class webpage and occasionally on the smartboard. Students absolutely love seeing the countdown tick down - it builds excitement while also helping them understand time concepts. The tool shows days, hours, and minutes remaining, which makes the wait feel more concrete and manageable for younger students. I've found it's great for motivating students through those tough final weeks when everyone's ready for break. You can reference it during lessons about time, planning, or goal-setting too. Creates a shared sense of anticipation that actually improves classroom energy rather than just making everyone restless. Simple but really effective for end-of-year classroom management!
