The use of Exit Tickets on an ongoing basis will allow the teacher to assess students knowledge quickly and efficiently. This data can easily inform the teacher's instruction for the follow up lessons. No need to wait for the test to see what students have learned! This will further enable the teacher to set up the station rotation model for the following lesson. Students that understood the content from the previous lesson can begin with the independent work while students that did not quite understand the lesson will begin the rotation model at the Teacher's Center where materials will be reviewed and retaught in a different manner if necessary.
