Episode notes
INSIGHT

Daily Formative Checks Work

  • Exit tickets are short, daily formative assessments that reveal what students learned and what they still question.
  • Teachers can use this immediate feedback to adjust upcoming lessons and close learning gaps quickly.
ADVICE

Use The 3‑2 Exit Ticket

  • Use the 3-2 exit ticket: list three things learned, two remaining questions, and one key takeaway.
  • Collect these daily to track comprehension and surface topics needing reteaching.
INSIGHT

Make Exit Tickets Metacognitive

  • Exit tickets are metacognitive prompts, not generic surveys, and work best when students engage during class.
  • Familiarity with the routine reduces class-time overhead and improves quality of responses.
