A two-part exit slip pairing clocks with a data table. Students read two analog faces, 9:00 and 4:30, then answer questions on Ms. Green's classroom pet vote of Dog 5, Cat 3 and Fish 2. It fits the end of a lesson on either strand and takes a couple of minutes to mark.
1.MD.3
“Tell and write time in hours and half-hours using analog and digital clocks.”
The 4:30 clock forces the half-hour reading, where the hour hand sits between two numerals.
1.MD.4
“Organize, represent, and interpret data with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number of data points, how many in each category, and how many more or less are in one category than in another.”
The vote table holds three categories and ten data points, small enough to interrogate in exit-slip time.
Two clocks with a line under each. The first shows the hour hand straight at 9 and reads 9:00; the second reads 4:30.
A three-row table of votes: Dog 5, Cat 3, Fish 2. Question 3 asks how many students chose dog, and the remaining questions work the other counts.
Two-lesson checkpoint
Use it after the pair of lessons on time and data. One slip covers both, so nobody sits a second check.
Sort on 4:30
Reading the 9:00 clock correctly but writing 5:30 or 4:00 for the second face is the split worth acting on the next morning.
Follow-up question
Fast finishers can flip the slip and write one more question the pet table could answer.
