In her book, Mathematical Mindsets, Jo Boaler says, "An exit ticket is a piece of paper that you give to students at the end of class that asks them to talk about their learning in the class.  Before they leave the room, they complete the ticket and give it to you.  This   is another time for students to reflect, helping their learning and giving the teacher really valuable information on students' learning and ideas for the next lesson."  This closure activity can be combined with My Favorite No, 4 Corners, Traffic Light or Snowball.
