So on the SUPER cold day I got a genius idea to create something based upon an idea I saw on Pinterest. The idea I saw was for conversation JENGA with speech topics on each block. Students pull one out and then speak on it for a given amount of time. While I will be using this idea on the other side of my blocks for now I have come up with the idea I call Exit Slip JENGA (my husbands vote was for A+ JENGA and that was a no go) but you can call it whatever you want and like. So here is how this went down! I bought this set at the Dollar General store for $4 Here is my finished product. So with Sharpie in hand I sat down to come up with my questions. In total I have 10 questions all but one set are used 4 times. I plan to put on the other side in a different color the speech topic ideas and I will post that list as soon as I come up with them too! How will I use this is class? Well I already use Post-its like I endorse the darn company so I made my questions simple enough to be answered on a single Post-it. I plan to use them as exit slips out the door or to review if there is time remaining at the end of a class period. Another thought I have is to use the other side for pre-assessment questions (this just came to me as I was writing this and I actually like it way better than the speech topics!). Here is my list of questions: - What do you remember most? - Summarize today's lesson - How will this help you in another class - Doodle/Draw today's key point - How is this used in real life? - What will we cover tomorrow? - Create 1 quiz question and answer it - Define 1 important term - What is 1 question you still have? - List 3 important points from today So please give me your ideas on how you could use this in your classroom and what questions you will put onto your set?
