ToolPorch / Classroom

Classroom tools, projector-ready

Every tool here was built for the way teachers actually use them: loaded on a Chromebook, projected on the board, in front of thirty kids. One click gets you a clean fullscreen with nothing on it but the tool — no ads, no clutter, nothing you'd have to explain to a nine-year-old.

Random Name PickerCold-call fairly. Saves multiple class lists on your device and tracks who's been picked so nobody gets skipped — or picked twice.Daily driver Group GeneratorSplit a class into N groups or groups of N. Keep-apart rules let you separate the pairs that shouldn't sit together.Groups Classroom TimerHuge digits, gentle end chime, color shift as time runs out. Presets for the transitions you run every day.Timer Noise MeterA live volume bar the whole class can see. Audio is processed on your device and never recorded or uploaded.Volume Seating Chart MakerLay out your room as a grid, shuffle seats randomly, keep certain students apart, and print the result.Seating Dice RollerOne to six dice, d4 to d20, sized for the back row. Great for math games and probability lessons.Games

Your class lists follow you between tools

Type a class list once — in the name picker, the group generator, or the seating chart — and save it with a class name. Every classroom tool on ToolPorch reads the same saved lists, so "Period 3" is waiting for you in all of them. Lists are stored in your browser on your device: we never see them, and they survive closing the tab. (They won't follow you to a different computer — that's the privacy trade we chose on purpose.)

Works on school hardware

No installs, no extensions, no accounts to get past the district filter. These are plain web pages that run on Chromebooks, smartboards, and the teacher desktop that hasn't been updated since 2019. If your projector can show a website, it can run these.
