Is there a Timer feature in MS Teams? I am looking to manage student tasks with a countdown timer or similar.

I would also like to see a timer. Please consider adding one.
Thanks.
A simple timer function would be very good idea. As a business moving to more virtual meetings, keeping the meeting to time is crucial in order to stick to the agenda. Think this would be a very easy addition and well received. so timer is present while someone else is presenting.

I am sorry to be the person bringing the bad news, unfortunately, this is not an option.
However, you could download a timer to your device and share your screen for your students to see the timer.
This is a pretty disappointing answer, actually:
A meeting timer is a great suggestion, and a better answer would have been to direct Donnie to the Teams UserVoice feedback portal. A quick search there highlights that this feature is in high demand.
Our company also moved to Teams for our meetings and vILTs. A countdown timer would be a great addition to MS Teams.
Definitely would be great to have a timer that we could put in the presenter's screen so that they know how much time they have.
