You can now easily display the current day and date on any slide using the new Today’s Date widget. It’s a simple tool that helps you start the day right, add context to your lesson, and keep your board up to date—automatically.

What it does

The widget shows:

  • Day of the week

  • Date (e.g., Monday, 2 June 2024)

It updates automatically, so you never have to change it manually.

Practical classroom examples

Start the day with structure
Add the widget to your morning slides so students see the date right away. It helps them stay oriented and sets a routine from the moment class begins.

Anchor lessons in time
Use the widget when discussing events, seasons, or daily routines. It provides a helpful reference, especially for younger students still learning days and dates.

Made for interactive teaching

You can move and resize the Today’s Date widget to fit your slide design. Whether it’s part of your morning routine or a daily schedule, it’s built to support your lesson—without getting in the way.
