EXIT SLIPS

An EXIT slip is a variation of the admit slip.  Toward the end of the class, the teacher asks students for exit slips as a way of bringing closure to what has been learned.  An exit slip question might require the students to summarize, synthesize, evaluate, or project.  The teacher may also use the exit slip to ask for one idea that the student is confused about or one important idea shared in class.

The several minutes devoted to exit slip writing often are quite revealing of the success / failure of the day's lesson and can be useful for the teacher in establishing the direction of the next lesson.
