Exit tickets as formative assessments
CLASSROOM SHOWCASE
From Lizz KauneStudents used these pictures to practice forming the following sentences (orally) about their politician...
She was born in...
She graduated from...
She lives in...
She has ___ children...
She was elected in....
She works in...
Ss also formed sentences about themselves....
I was born in....
I live in...etc.
During the presentation, they didn't use any written prompts. They just referred to the pictures on their poster board (as prompts), which they were familiar with from practicing in class and at home.
Please send me pictures, and be sure to include the branch name and level. I need them by the end of the business day on Wednesday. If I already have enough submissions for the week- that just means your pictures will be published the next week. Personally, I think the pictures that you share are the best part of the blog.
