1. KWL Chart
KWL charts promote comprehension because they allow students to write what they already know about a topic, what they want to know, and then what they learned. This helps children create a connection with what they are learning and it sparks their background knowledge. This makes it easier for students to comprehend what they are learning, and remember it later on down the road.

2. Exit Tickets Exit tickets are used by teachers as a way to formatively assess what students learn in a given period of time. Before students leave the classroom or move on to the next lesson, they may be asked to answer just one, or a few different questions pertaining to what they learned. The teacher can then use these responses to monitor his/her own teaching, and decipher where it is they need to go back and enhance their lessons. |
