Students will take time to think on their own about a question I will post on the board. Then they will share it with their elbow partner. Once they've had time to pick each other brains and discussed what they talked about,they will have time to share with the class.

Have students hold up a fist of five in front of their chest so other students can't see their response. Five is a solid knowing of the material, Three is in the middle and one to zero is that the students don't know the material and need extra assistance.

Have students make up an ad, picture or article for the class magazine/newspaper over a certain lesson that you have taught that day. Gather each students piece of work and make a newspaper for the class to look back on.

Have students get out a notecard and write down three things that they know or have questions on. Sometimes a fast notecard is all the assessing a teacher needs before the students transition to another subject.

Students will write down a question that they need help with or will write down a question that they know and are trying to stump their classmates. They will crumble up their notes and will throw them to the front of the classroom. Each student will unravel a notecard and will answer the question.

Have the students pull out a notecard and have them color a circle either Green, Yellow or Red.... Green means that they understand, yellow means they are understand some aspects and red means they don't understand at all and need extra support. Quick and easy assessment that kids will enjoy.

I'll be in the middle of two single file lines. The students will be divided evenly and given a dry erase marker to write with on the board. The two students that are first in the line will race to the board, write down the answer to the question I ask and then race back to the peer that was behind them and hand them the marker. Then they'll go to the back of the line and let the other people get a chance to race. I'll be checking off on clipboard what the students get right or wrong.

Before leaving students will write down their name and three things that they have learned from a certain lesson that day on a sticky note. Students will stick it to the door on their way out. This way I can see what they recall or what they may need extra support on.

A penny for your thoughts.. I love this assessment! Each word will be worth a certain amount depending on how much you want the essay to be worth. For instance 30 words at 10 cents a piece will be a $3 summary. Kids will have to write a summary of an explanation to equal how much you set the essay to.

This is a fun way to see what my students know about a certain subject.  I'll be in the center of the room and I'll ask my students a specific question about the material we are learning. For example: Which planet is closet to the sun? I'll give each corner a number and an answer. Corner 1 will be Mercury Corner 2 will be Earth, Corner 3 will be Jupiter and corner 4 will be Uranus. The students will then have a chance to pick which corner they think is correct.. whoever is in corner 1, Mercury, will get the question correct. I'll have my clipboard with names and will check off each student that is getting questions correct & incorrect. I'll ask 5-10 questions.
