How to Use the Traffic Light Widget for Behavior Cues

Step-by-Step Setup

1. 1 Add the Traffic Light widget to your screen display.
2. 2 Position the widget next to your instructions text boxes for high visibility.
3. 3 Explain the meaning of each light to the class (e.g., Red = silent focus).
4. 4 Click the red, yellow, or green circles directly on the widget to switch signals.
5. 5 Change lights as student activity phases transition.

Pro Strategies for Classroom Success

• Silent Red Set the light to red during quizzes. Students monitor their behavior without verbal reminders.
• Transition Signals Switch to yellow during cleanup, green for work, and red for listening times.
• Status Checks Have students use their own visual traffic signals at their desks to indicate pacing comfort.
