What works for Grade 2 does not work for Grade 9. I built HomeRoom with an App Store so you can choose from 30+ classroom widgets, pin what you need, and drop the rest. Try it free for 60 days at OurHomeRoom.app

I wanted a way for substitute teachers to use the exact same digital tools my class expects every day. I built Guest Teacher mode to keep our routines intact, even when I'm home sick. #HomeRoom #OurHomeRoom #edusky
I built HomeRoom to solve the exact problems I was having with other digital planners. It shows my whole day at a glance, counts down the minutes left in our current subject, and even displays our learning targets on the dashboard. It takes the entire mental load out of pacing the day. #HomeRoom
Thanks @margreek.bsky.social Making @ourhomeroom.app has been a fun passion project over the last 6 months. It's fun (and scary) to see active users trying it out! I hope it solves similar problems for others that it does for me. Ourhomeroom.app if anyone wants to try it free for 2 months!
HomeRoom — The operating system for your classroom
Replace the dozen tabs you run your classroom from with one dashboard. Custom layouts, a live day planner, group maker, and a phone remote for your board — free to start, built by a teacher.
