Post-it Exit
Activity Summary
Teacher will put an exit question based on the topic covered on the board. Students have 2 minutes to write their answer. They will then stick their post it answer in the designated area when exiting the classroom at the end of the lesson. The students use their knowledge covered so far on the topic in order to answer the question. They might need to rely on multiple lessons depending on the complexity of the question.
This method can be used to develop a reflection practice or as a learning log for the students.

Tips & Tricks
- If used regularly, students can be asked to have a stack of post-its bought. This will reduce time wasted handing out post-its.
- Otherwise to reduce time you can have a designed team who will know to pass out the post-its while the teacher is writing the questions.
