I give the students an exit slip that lists that days objective and skill. They are asked how focused they were in class that day and the respond with a percentage. They are asked to rate their understanding of the objective from 0-4. And then they are asked to help my gauge their understanding by answering a question or two. I can copy 2 per page so they are just half sheets and they provide necessary information that I can use. I will admit that I don't do it every day, but I use it mostly with new material and sometimes with review material to see when I can move on. They hand me the ticket on their way out of the door.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10220498.post-11386940744042075252010-01-04T20:14:51.546-06:002010-01-04T20:14:51.546-06:00Ahhhhhhh, it's who you know in GoogleLand :) ....Ahhhhhhh, it's who you know in GoogleLand :) .... <br /><br />and maybe the words "math teacher" in my title.<br /><br />Have fun with your kiddies tomorrow.
