Exit Slips

One of the things we've been during through the course of this subject were the "Exit Slips" Melinda gave us a topic to talk about, or we chose it sometimes and had to send her an email with a summary of it. The Exit Slip strategy is very useful and I can't wait to use it when I become a teacher, because it helps students to process new concepts, reflect on the information learned and express their thoughts about new information. Moreover, it requires students to respond to a prompt given by the teacher, and is an easy way to incorporate writing into many different content areas. Furthermore, the Exit Slip strategy is an informal assessment that allows you to adapt and differentiate the planning and instruction. Here's an extract of an actual Exit Slip conversation through gmail.

Here's the document I sent Melinda about Peer Evaluation.
