Module 9: Exit Tickets
An exit ticket is a strategy that I used most days to gauge what students understood in class or what they need help with in the future. Students are expected to work individually. It does not help them as individuals to work together.
Above is a set of notes that we will go through as a class. Students will engage in practice problems and can work with their partners.
At the end of the class, they will complete the exit ticket on slide 50. This would be printed and the students would turn in their own copy.
3-2-1 Strategy
The biggest key takeaway from the textbook came from the ideas in chapter 23 on exit tickets in the classroom.
Fang and Park article: This article reminded me how important it is for teachers to provide explicit instructions for students regarding content vocabulary.
Using Multi-Modal Writing Tasks in Science Classrooms: This article talks about using different modes of tasks such as written tasks, diagrams, charts, videos, and speeches to help the student learn.
In my future class:
I would like to incorporate a better organized lesson on how students need to approach scientific writing. No matter what class I have students still seem to struggle. One thing we do in chemistry is use graphic organizers and we have the kids write, but I would like to have students include more drawings, and oral presentations.
My big question right now is how should I structure the whole experiment from start to finish in an efficient and instructive way?
I also use exit tickets to gauge student learning and adjust my planning. I also think that it gives students and opportunity to reflect on what they learned and self assess. I agree that teachers should explicitly instruct students on content vocabulary; do you have any strategies in mind for doing so? I wonder if some of the writing to learn strategies we learned about this week would also improve students academic language.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you exit tickets are very useful for students at the end of the lesson. It assess the students and check whether the lesson that was taught was understood. I use small papers for the exit ticket. I ask the student to write responses to what they learnt in class.
