Printable Exit Ticket Template1 page · free PDFWhat an exit ticket is
An exit ticket is a short task students complete in the final few minutes of a lesson and hand in as they leave. It usually asks one to three questions tied to the lesson objective. Because it takes only a few minutes and is quick to read, it gives teachers same-day evidence of learning — the essence of formative assessment — without the time cost of a quiz.
Exit ticket formats in the pack
| Format | Prompt | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| 3-2-1 | 3 things I learned, 2 questions, 1 thing I found interesting | Summarising new content |
| Rate your understanding | 1–4 scale plus “because…” | Self-assessment |
| Muddiest point | What was least clear today? | Finding misconceptions |
| One-question check | A single problem or question on the objective | Quick mastery check |
| Emoji check-in | Circle a face and explain | Younger students |
| Before and after | I used to think… now I think… | Conceptual change |
| Apply it | Use today’s idea in a new example | Transfer |
| Question for tomorrow | What would you like to know next? | Curiosity and planning |
Writing good exit ticket questions
- Tie every question directly to the lesson objective.
- Keep it short: students should finish in 2–5 minutes.
- Ask for evidence, not just “Did you understand?” — a quick problem or explanation reveals more.
- Include one self-rating so students reflect on their learning.
- Vary formats across the week to keep responses thoughtful.
Using the responses
- Sort tickets into three piles: got it, almost, not yet.
- Look for common errors or questions.
- Plan a quick reteach, small group or extension for tomorrow.
- Share one or two anonymous responses with the class to discuss.
- Record patterns in the tracker to spot students who need extra support.
Sorting 25–30 tickets usually takes under ten minutes, and the three-pile method makes the next lesson’s warm-up easy to plan.
Digital and paper exit tickets
Paper slips are quick, work without devices and let students draw diagrams. Digital forms collect responses automatically and are easy to sort. Many teachers use both: paper for quick checks and diagrams, digital when they want data over time. The editable Word templates in the pack make it easy to project a prompt or paste it into a form.
Worked example: a fractions lesson
After a lesson on equivalent fractions, a teacher uses a two-part exit ticket: “Write two fractions equivalent to 3/4” and “Rate your understanding 1–4 and explain.” Sorting the slips shows 18 students got it, 7 wrote fractions like 6/7 (adding rather than multiplying), and 3 left it blank. The next day starts with a five-minute reteach for the 10 students while the others try a challenge problem.
