This is a handy website. It allows you to put multiple management tools on one web page. Some highlights include the voice level indicator, the tech stoplight and a timer.
Google Slides Station/Center Guide
This slideshow template is based on one Sara Frater used with her first graders, but it can work with any age students. It is particularly helpful if you have students rotate among learning stations in your classroom. A slideshow like this can quickly direct students to their next station. This example has 5 slides to help you rotate students to all groups. Feel free to make a copy of this and modify it to meet your needs.

This tool was highlighted last year, but it's worth seeing again. It allows you to turn a Google spreadsheet into classroom tools like a name picker, badge tracker, learning games, etc.
Simply go to YouTube and search for timer. These timers easily embed into a Google slideshow, or you can run them right off YouTube. It's a great way to help students stay on task and finish a task in time.
You may not think of these as classroom management tools, but they can be. Use them to quickly get your students to their digital activities. This reduces time away from learning tasks. These tools also let you engage individual learners at a high level which helps to keep them on task.
