  1. Exit Slips TOOLS FOR TEACHING CONTENT LITERACY By Erica Mailand - 6/3/13

  2. What is an exit slip? • Exit slips are written responses that students write to questions that teachers pose at the end of a lesson. Conveniently, they can be written on index cards and then collected. Exit slips can be used in elementary or high school. I have used them with 5th graders.

  3. Why would I use this strategy? • They give students the opportunity to reflect on what they have learned. • Students are required to think critically and/or question. • Exit slips, or cards, provide teachers with informal assessments that measure how the students have understood the lesson. They provide good feedback about how students are learning and that information can be used to for student records or portfolios. In this way, exit slips can be used to drive instruction. Especially if they are used routinely.

  4. How you can teach this strategy: Begin the strategy after your lesson is completed….Think of it as the ticket to end your lesson and move onto the next or consider using it as you lesson “closure”. Step 1. At the end of your lesson ask students to respond to a question or prompt. Questions can prompt student to reflect on what they’ve learned, what they didn’t understand, how effective the instruction was for them, what they would like to learn more about… • Examples of exit slip prompts : A. Write one thing you learned today. B. I didn't understand C. Write one question you have about today's lesson. D. Did you enjoy working in small groups today? E. I would like to learn more about… F. Please explain more about… G. The thing that surprised me the most today was… Step 2. You may either tell the prompt to your students or display it on the board. Step 3. Distribute 3 x 5 cards for students to write their responses. Step 4. Allow time for the students to respond. Step 5. Read the exit slips and see how you may need to alter your instruction to better meet the needs of all your students and save the exit slips as records of student progress.

  6. “While I do not do these after every lesson, I do like to incorporate them here and there, especially if we are introducing some pretty complex concepts. Plus, I find it keeps kids more accountable to their own learning.”-Stephanie, Blogger (www.3rdgradeblogger.com)
