I really been utilizing exit slips for the “true meaning” of exit slips this year. Before I used to use them because it was a fun idea. Kids would stay in their seats until the bell. You know…keep them busy type of attitude. I now really use them to help me instruct for the next day. I do have to admit…it is extremely frustrating when you spend what you think is your best lesson ever and then you give the exit slip where the majority of students didn’t get it. This is frustrating but necessary to know. Most of my exit slips are made up right then and there. I want to know subject area. I do have others that I have used and have included here.
Here are some of my online sources
Entrance Tickets (I love this idea and have not yet tried. What about giving before they leave and it must be done to enter.)
I like to organize my exit slips into three groups. Those that got it, close, and then completly clueless. This works well in a classroom where it is co taught. Remediation can occurr.
